      I did this. To remove the oil pan and install the e34 oil pan. Flipped it twice just for the hell of it. Succeeded with no problems, again. P.S, Mine was not on a leveled concrete.

        Cool. Maybe my engine wasn't centered or something. :shrug

          OTC and AC Hydraulic... firm believer in if you buy it right, you only have to buy it once.

                      I have two CSB's and a Flathead hanging off cheap T stands and have been for YEARS. Held my BBC off of one as I stripped it down to go in the 63 pickup. Hell my pops fired a SBC up ON THE STAND just to make sure it still ran after sitting on there for 20 years before we stuffed it in a 47 Ford. Just be careful moving them and when rotating a motor and you'll be fine.

                          That's an engine hoist, not an engine stand.

                              God damn expansion joints in the shop floor SUCK. I'm still laughing about you getting your V8 stuck three times in a row in like 5 seconds.
