Sam,

I am going to put a prop under the bell housing.

The only way I can think is to remove the belt, pulley and  harmonic and a use a longer bolt use another prop.

My mechanic  "SHOULD" be work.

 

Col used is exactly what you did.

I hope will weight the motor being all aluminium.

 

Regards.

Thanks for all the different ways to try support the engine.

I was told a few guy's not to touch the harmonic balancer or pulley or using the bolt in the harmonic.

 

Regards.
