I used 4 of the tranny to engine bolts and it's very sturdy.

I removed the engine to replace with a new one after a very strong coolant/oil cocktail mix.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have never put my 3.4L on an engine stand and was wondering what engine stand adapter is needed. I have a good engine stand but not the typical 911 adapter. What kind do you guys recommend for the 996 engine? Thanks

POST 2Original post

I used a standard one from checker auto, it supports the weight and mounts in 4 places which good to me.

POST 4Original post

I have not tried with the 911, however as you can see that the 4 mounting places are adjustable in height and length.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I just used my standard one I've had as well this weekend. I used all 4 mounting spots; didn't need the special air-cooled adapter I've seen. thanks

POST 6Original post

Good job and post pictures if you have.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well, I've used this engine stand adapter before and has worked just fine. I used 4 of the tranny to engine bolts and it's very sturdy.

POST 8Original post

How high does the rear have to be up to clear for engine removal? Curious why are you removing? Great job so far. Be safe.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I actually lower the engine onto my ATV jack you can see a little of in the picture. I removed the engine to replace with a new one after a very strong coolant/oil cocktail mix.

POST 10Original post

Quotes source post: 3886051

I understand, but how high does the rear of the car need to go up for new eng to be put underneath? Where did you get new engine I need one also.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Mother, I saw your post on Rennlist. I ordered mine new from Sunset. With the front wheels on the ground the back end doesn't need to come up that high actually. My regular jackstands do the trick.

Thanks in case I do it myself.
