550f1 engine removal

Matthew, any chances to see a picture of that engine stand?
--- Quote from: matthewmosse on October 22, 2015, 08:38:55 PM ---The engines sit nicely enough with the oil filter housing and sump in situ, and as my shed is a bit of a mess I normally stick the oil filter back on as soon as that bit is clear of the frame, but still supported, minimalising the chances for dirt or dust to get in. I have about 8 500/550 engines stood like this awaiting either work or installation. I also like a very basic engine stand I picked up in a job lot that allows me to test engines complete with exhaust without installing it.
