When I had a heavy engine , I took some 6 inch channel notched it and bent it . I then welded angle iron across to sturdy it into a platform . I got a little crazy and put gages in the channel and key switch and later added radiator . For motor mounts I took a plate drilled it to fit and cut some heavy walled pipe the right angle to fit plate and length to come out and sit on top of the channel , then drilled some holes and used U clamps to hold . You will also need some rear support and depending were the motor mount is you may need to get fancy to balance the load forward our back . It worked great and I used it many times and ran most engines when done right on the stand .
