what holes did you use to bolt your yb to an engine stand.

im doing mine tomorrow and was going to use the two threaded holes up near the head and the lowest two (the ones with the dowels). i am just a bit concerned about the strenght of the casting because the position of the holes is not ideal and the engine is fully loaded with turbo etc.

any info would be a great help ... thanks

 

I used 4 of the gearbox holes, 2 with the dowels and 2 of the blind holes I think. I didnt have any problems

 

Gearbox ones are the way to go

 

Something like this

 

i thought the four lower holes were a bit close together thats all.but it seems youve been there - done that so thanks for the help

 

Top two and bottom two will reduce stresses

 

ah thats the way i was going . thanks for the info

 

isnt that what the pic shows?

 

 

Mines even got the fly wheel and clutch still on it Had to use very long bolts And yes as others say with bolt hole
