RE: [T3] Engine out- draining oil

["Jaranson, John (J.W.)" <jjaranso@ford.com>]

A caution on the engine stand......

I bought a generic 1000lb capacity engine stand  (I will add some pictures
this weekend), but had to modify it some to work with my T3 engine.  There
are 4 arms that bolt to the engine and then to the stand.  I had to add an
additional hole at the mid-point of each arm since they would not adjust
small enough to match the bolt pattern of the engine.  I also had to shorten
the boss in the end of the arm about 1/4" since the two studs at the bottom
of the case were not long enough.  I also had to buy two bolts for the top
of the case since the stock bolts are way too long.

Once it was all bolted up it worked great......just need some tweaking.

Later,
