Hi, will an engine stand for an air-cooled VW engine fit onto a waterboxer? I see a lot of VW engine stands out there that say there are specifically made for VW air-cooled engines, but I can't find any that are made specifically for vanagon engines.

What should I buy?

to help people understand what I'm talking about, I put some pictures here:

choice 1: VW floor standing with that U mount that should bolt on to the case, but does it fit a 1.9L choice 2: Bench mount with that U. choice 3: supposedly universal 4 arm swivel mount that I can walk into Kragen and buy. don't particularly like Kragen, but it's close.
