Here we go again!! Maybe.

Need more information to even suggest a qualified answer: Are you using a different engine than a small block? If not, what is wrong with the small block mounts? They were engineered to go with the combination, and are probably some of the best for a street driven car, barring some sort of extreme performance enhancements.

Please tell us more.

Since it's sort of a wide open question.....

This is what I used on my 70 Camaro.



depends what your build plans are.

Gary, how tall are those stands the car is sitting on? If you were to do it all over, would you make them taller or shorter? Thanks buddy.

They are 18'' tall. Just about perfect for working off a creeper. ''Poor man's hoist'', I don't have the headroom for a lift. Each of the 4 legs on each stand have adjusters so I can level them & level the car. The scales fit between the 4''x4'' blocks that are bolted down to the stands, so I can scale it & have plenty of room to roll underneath to make chassis adjustments.



I made this extension for the jack to get it up high enough.


The stands are super sturdy, but I don't think I'd ever fire up a car while it's up there. But, I should have a pit jack by the time this thing has a real engine.

Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

Isn't the distance between your belly and the underside of the car known as squish distance???and usable work distance is the differance between squish and reach??(arm length)

Now back to regularly scheduled thread

LMAO, you guys are cracking me up....
