Hello all - I'll post this in the Spider and GT forums to be see if there is interest in an engine stand adapter I designed and manufactured for my own use. It is designed to allow the motor with sump to rotate through 360 degrees while mated to a "standard" engine stand - mine being Harbor Freight. The bracket is CNC plasma cut from .25in mild steel plate and the tube is cut from .15in thick 2.375in OD pipe. To make the part easier to weld I used one gusset and let the pipe through the plate to allow it to be welded on both sides.
I'd like to offer all the parts you see here as a You-Weld-It kit for a reasonable price, approx $50. I'm still refining prices with my suppliers and volume may push that number about some.
I am open to TIG welding the part to order for a higher price - but - this is complicated by my changing schedule and frankly lack of understand about how liability works for such a thing. I've been welding for decades, trust my welds and tested the part but I don't run a factory.
If you are interested in either version please post here and let me know!

It is designed to allow the motor with sump to rotate through 360 degrees while mated to a "standard" engine stand - mine being Harbor Freight. The bracket is CNC plasma cut from 1/4in mild steel plate and the tube is cut from 1/4in thick 2.375in OD pipe. To make the part easier to weld I used one gusset and let the pipe through the plate to allow it to be welded on both sides.
