Just to point out, YOU DONT NEED AN ENGINE STAND ADAPTER FOR ROTARY ENGINES



See here where mine is mounted just on a plain old stand from harbor frieght.

Interesting. I can't tell by looking at the pix. How many bolts are holding the engine to the stand? I know someone with a stand I can borrow. He works on chevy 350's. Do ya suppose I can bolt a 13BT to his stand without buying a rotary-specific head?

the secodn pic that the fd3boost posted will not allow you to stack you the engine once you get to the midle plate it will hit the bolt plate. the first pic is the only way without having any adapters and you can use 3 bolts. the only thing with that method is once the engine is together its hard to rotate it around since all the weight is on one side.
