[QUOTE="RandyL, post: 123420, member: 20139"] You do not want your engine stand centered on the crankshaft, that is far too low. The crankshaft is at the very bottom of the engine. Do the best you can to mount the head of the stand above the crank, more inline with the center of weight of the engine. Mine worked out fine as in these photos even though it was still top heavy. I could not get it lower easily. You can imagine how top heavy once the head is put back on. Use a 3-4 ft bar at the end of the stand head to hold or rotate the engine anytime that you pull the locking pin. Rotate it slow and it will be perfect. I will see if I can turn up the info on the fuel pump. I think I have it out in the shop. I had pulled my flywheel. several reasons.... I don't think my stand would have fit with it on, took a bunch of weight off when handling the block, and it had to come off as I wanted new crackshaft seals in the engine. [/QUOTE]
