Seen this on ebay. I am sure Jake has a cool setup also, but for us garage jockeys this is pretty cool. I don't know anything about this other what is stated in the ebay ad. Just thought it was cool.

For ~$100 (including gage, casters and wiring) you can make a run in stand that allows you to bolt up engine, tranny, starter, exhaust, engine bar, hook up a tach and starter button. You can then roll the entire kit around your garage, test run the engine. Roll the complete unit under your car, and lift it into place, bolt the engine into the car and be done.

Put this stand together for a hell of a lot less than the one being sold on ebay. Besides it comes apart and it can be used as a dolly.
