I have immediately gained respect for your dad not even knowing him that is , as I said it was me and a dude worth a buckfifty that lifted it into the truck...I have a fleeting suspicion he didn't put his weight into it like I did...

yah, i got the engine stand with it as well so I can work on it with relative ease. i dont know of all the kinds out there but with this one you can rotate the engine 360 degrees to get underneath etc...that turbo sure looks sweet

although I can just see myself wrestling with a bolt somewhere and toppling the whole thing over.
