Noob question, does anybody know if this stand going to be good enough for a sbc? Im gonna tear down a 350 and the budget is tight and this thing is cheap. The seller doesn't know the brand or specs but says it'll hold it, but like I said ima noob lol.

Thanks

 

yes just be very careful rolling it around

 

Ahh I see your point, is it bc only 3took wheels wouldn't be stable? Plan on putting the thing in the corner and leaving it there

 

correct...if the front wheel gets hung up itll tip real easy.

 

Gotcha thanks for the advice there, im pretty paranoid so it would braced up

 

I built my first motor on a 3 wheeler like that, and then it held a 305 for years. With the fully dressed motor, the motor seemed to tilt down quite a bit, but it never went anywhere.

Now I only use that stand to hold the motors coming out of the cars. For the $50-60 that a better stand costs, I don't want to risk tipping over a 3 wheeler and trashing a good motor.

 

yea, i used to have a 3 wheeler. they want to tip easy....best way to move it around is to pull it from the back, never push it. shold be fine to hold a motor in the corner of the garage for long periods of time.

 

Do you have any buddys that got a welder? I betcha you could add 2 casters to the front.

 

I had a stand like that a long time ago. I welded a cross bar across the front foot just to make sure in the event it started tipping, it wouldnt go far.
