Dave, I also bought a stand from HF and have been very happy with it. I bought
some long bolts
and washers from Home Depot and simply bolted the engine on (after removing the
backing plate)
using the holes for the transmission bell housing bolts.
Some pictures are here -

Subject: [Mgs] MGB engine stand hookup
Listers,
Want to start rebuilding a 74 MGB engine that I have and bought an engine stand
from Harbor Freight(I know).
What size long bolts do I need to secure the engine to the tripod rolling
stand? Where do I bolt it to?
Who's been here already and can shed some tips?
Cheers,
Dave Houser
