## Description

Empi Heavy Duty Engine Stand, without Tray

Review: If you know what it's for, you know what it's for. - Purpose built, serves it's purpose well
Review: Cheap but technically gets the job done - Using for type 1 and 2 motors. Absolutely awful. Feels very cheap and I honestly worry about the mound for the engine whether it will break or not. The main problem is the tri wheel design instead of four like real engine stands. Normal stands have a bar in the front for added stability. If you’re moving this across the shop it honestly starts to tip. Unfortunately the adapter is really small so it won’t fit in a normal stand either. It does technically get the job done but I wouldn’t purchase again. JBugs sells a bench mount adapter that one can cut and re-welded the mount for to use in a standard engine stand. I would tell you to do that.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good at this price
*by A***X on January 25, 2024*

This stand works excellent for its purpose, but the packaging and delivery condition leaves much to be desired. It is double boxed, but it tore thru both packages and ultimately arrived scratched and bare metal in some areas. This issue may not be with the manufacturer, more the shipping process, but be mindful it won't be showroom condition upon arrival. Yes, it's an engine stand and will ultimately be dirty, scratched and beaten, but at least allow me to make those battle scars.
