Race site engine stand

[Guest]

Over the years we have tried different ways to support engines while we changes them for a different class. The latest attempt was to make a simple 4 engine stand that will easily disassemble for transportation in the trailer. The stand used one 2x6, 0ne 2x10 and two 2x4 along with a box of 2 1/2" deck screws. Total time to fabricate the stand took 4 hours including a trip to Lowes. We made it low to minimize lifting and hopefully it will help make things easier in pits for us but still have a few inches clearance on the lower units. If anyone wants detailed dimensions and photo's let me know. The nice part you can change the length to meet your needs

its a nice stand, but I still got to lift the heavy bastards out of the trailer, Lets come up with a idea to solve that problem

Jeff, invite about four neighbor kids to the races with you! That's my plan for this year!

Jeff! I can solve the problem. All you need to do is get some OMC A engines and the heavy lifting is gone. Also the boats will be a lot lighter then your SE items and you can make the trailer smaller.

Dear god:

I think that a picture of Brian Hendick sitting beside his trailer shows a crane used to lift some ancient iron. Maybe he will post it - his files seem better organised than my memory.
