Engine Run-in Stand
« on: February 03, 2008, 06:20:25 AM »
Anyone have any suggestions as to building motor stand and then running the motor on the stand before installing it in a boat?

Damn 2Sav,  it's just too simple.  :)  That's an easy build out of 4" x 4" sq. tubing.  Then make the mounting brackets adjustable for Chevy and Ford motors, both SB and BB  Thanks.

But then didn't you have to pull the motor back out to install the drive shaft?

I'll have to check it out.  I knew there wasn't really a whole lot to them, I just want to be safe if I build it.  Thanks.

Is that the black one I sold him? If so that was originally built by ironman44bear.

After watching this I watched some of the other ones that are linked on that page. Nothing and I mean nothing including a blown 2500HP sounds as good as a HEMI. The Hemi is on the '05 Speed o Motive vid. From aroung the 26 sec mark it sounds like an entire NASCAR track all rolled into on engine.

Oh yeah, very nicely done engine run-in stand. Nicely shown and explained too.  Thanks for the link.

That's even more compact and easier to store.  And when all done, take the wood to the beach and have a fire.  :)
