Hi, I my engine blew a while back and I decided to rebuild it myself. So I made myself an engine stand adaptor. I was wondering if there was any interest in these as I can make them for a lot cheaper than the mazdatrix ones. Well if you're interested in something like this, let me know. You can PM me or email me at doublearon@cox.net.



Thanks,

Aaron

I'll try to get some pics tomarrow. Note, this is the prototype and it looks pretty crude. Do not worry though, the welder doing this is a certified welder and has a lot of experience. This thing looks like it'll take a tank shell. I am thinking about $60+shipping for these. sound fair?

Not bashing you... I can get them for 45. So it would prolly be like 60 shipped. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

9BASE3 06-07-2003 07:59 PM

Just give me a bit to work everything out and get some pics up of the prototype, and hopefully in a couple of days, what the final product will look like.

Here is the number

Doesn't mean you can't make them too! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

I have to ask y?



Take the arms off a head unit and it bolts right up.

Also PR sells a nice unit that is not welded for ~45.00

2a+RoN 06-09-2003 10:42 AM

But if you bolt it straight onto the stand, it will not be centered, making it harder to rotate the engine. Although I was unaware that you could even do that, I thought the adapter was a necessity.

2a+RoN 06-09-2003 10:52 AM

Also, by PR did you mean Pineapple Racing? cuz they sell theirs for $69.

banzaitoyota 06-09-2003 12:06 PM

I must have got a good deal on mine then

Fd3BOOST 06-10-2003 07:48 AM

Uh, You do not need an adapter, i did mine right on the egine stand just as banzaitoyota mentioned.

My engine stand was $40 or so from harborfrieght.com.



I had no problem whatsoever rotating the engine while it was on the stand.

It sits perfectly straight without any adaptor.

You guys are thinking into this way to much..

Fd3BOOST 06-10-2003 07:50 AM

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png No adaptor here..

Here either, as you can clearly see the whole thing stayed on the stand just fine..

2a+RoN 06-10-2003 10:48 AM

Well... I guess you guys have proven me stupid. I wish I had known that the adapter was not needed earlier.

Fd3BOOST 06-10-2003 06:33 PM

Im not saying your stupid, Im just trying to save you some time.
