Trying to find an engine cradle so I can remove my engine from the stand, and work on clutch, bellhousing etc. I have found Stumpy's fab site, but not sure of the ordering procedure. I found the cradle, but can't seem to figure out how to order it. Any help? Thanks..

Go to the 'Contact' page in the fab site and communicate to him what your needs are.

If you plan on putting the engine on an engine stand, DON'T use the bell housing, mount the engine at the exhaust manifold area!!!!!

The concern is with the 59a blocks, not the 8ba blocks. I'm sure you are aware of that, but some others might not be.

He's looking for a cradle, not an engine stand.
