[Shop-talk] coupling two shafts

I will just note in addition that the Ford FEs and 460s I've had on 
engine stands have never needed anything like a motor.

I'd think that if you really need the leverage you might just want to 
consider welding a 1 1/2in nut on the end of the shaft and getting 
yourself a long 3/4-in drive ratchet handle (or welding a 2ft pipe on a 
Harbor Freight-grade short one.)
