Review on Torin Steel Rotating Engine Stand: BIG RED T26801, 360 Degree Head, Foldable Frame, 3/4 Ton, Red - 1,500 lb Capacity by Damon Fields

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Does not rotate with weight applied.

I bought this to restore a Chevy 454. For a Chevy, this beast weighs 700 pounds. That's less than half of what this stand is designed for. With the engine bolted on and the hoist removed, the front of the engine was 3 inches lower than the rear. It was impossible to turn the motor on the stand with the included handle. In fact, it was impossible to turn the engine at all.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • High price
