What do y'all use for engine stands??? / bracket??? I like the one from VW alley but can't seem to find any source. Seen some nice ones for $600 bucks but that's not in the budget. The 2 eared ones don't seem they would provide enough support. Thanks for the help.

This is a RAT 2270 fresh Eng. Mark and I are working on, the Cradle is a EMPI type and the Stand Is a Harbor Freight brand. Seems plenty strong for a 4. If you are just doing 4s it will save you lots of money. I have not heard of a failure from these.
