I picked up an engine stand at Harbor Freight for the Subaru engine,
after I took the subie engine off I put the 2.1 wbx engine on it.
I only used 3 of the mounts and one of those I had to turn sideways
to get all 3 useable, but it did work.
Made things simpler for stripping the case. When it comes time to
take the flywheel off I'll have to take it off the stand.
