Hell yeah, that's what I need!!! I've already got a heavy duty stand, just need that adapter :thumbs:


I bought one of those adapters already, it's pretty nice. I already had a V8 engine stand.

Ive got a 61 motor for it. No rush just getting started. I still drive it. I drove it to work yesterday. Plus when it comes out I'm going to seal the trans up. It has a small leak too.
