Yea I had some that scared me too , I can set on top of my motor with this one and it doesn't flex a bit . We move them around the garage with fully riged motors all the time . I got it from gegs and I think it was $200 . Spend the extra money , the one you have is probably great for a small block .

Yeah that's why I asked. I want to make sure the one I am looking at will have much better support and it's the same one ass OCCJoe has in his pic, so I figured I'd get some real world feedback.

Thanks for the input.
