Engine Stands

Can someone confirm left/right engine stands for a SBC. Attached is a pic as I think it should be. Does that look correct or is it reversed and should curve forward? Thanks.

Re: Engine Stands

ecna, check out the thread about the frame pictures. There are many shots of the engine stands, probably answers your question.

Re: Engine Stands

I have literally spent hours reading engine mount threads. I also just went through the link you posted. There is one kinda decent shot but not enough from above to see the angle. With all the experience in this board, I thought identifying left from right would be an easy question. Thanks for the link though.

That would be great. Thank you.

Look at my pic, you can see the way I have it (and think it fits best) it turns towards the back of the truck. If I flip them, they turn towards the front of the truck. The holes in the frame have been welded closed as it had a different mount system installed previously, otherwise it might me much more clear. Obviously I want them correct before I drill holes.

Re: Engine Stands

They point towards the rear like you have it positioned.

Re: Engine Stands

Looks like you got what you needed, I got home later than expected last night and it was dark by the time I got out to the yard.
