REFLECTOR: Lyci IO-540 engine stand

[Chuck Harbert]

Jorge, this might be made to work, but it is designed for car engines. The 
stand I used was pretty simple in that it was mounted the prop hub and the 
engine was in a vertical position coming up from the engine stand. The 
engine rotated on the mount. My brother told me he got it at a aviation 
parts website. It was a lot smaller and shouldn't be too expensive.
