Family,

The size and shape of the 914 motor is a little wonky.

Has anyone had success with an engine hoist or stand that allows for good access and cleaning once the powerplant is removed?

OR-

Do people leave it resting on the ground/platform?

Any info would be great and happy holidays?

Talk about timing. Last weekend I built a stand for my engine and tranny out of 2x4's and plywood on casters. I'll take some shots of it tonight and post them.
