FAQs

What types of Ford engines are compatible with these stands?

The BG5134 model comes in two options. Option 1 fits retro Ford engines like Pinto, X-flow, Pre X-flow, Lotus twin cam, BDA, and BDG. Option 2 is for Ford Duratec engines.

Are these stands sold individually or as a pair?

These engine carry stands are sold as a pair, including one left-hand (L/H) and one right-hand (R/H) stand.

What is the material of the stands?

The stands are manufactured from mild steel tubing.

How is the finish protected?

They feature a durable powder coated finish for corrosion resistance.

Can I use these stands for engines other than Ford?

No, these stands are specifically designed for a range of Ford engines only.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

Basic tools for tightening bolts are required. For some Duratec engines, you may need a wrench to loosen the OEM inlet manifold.

Troubleshooting

Stands do not fit the engine block.

Verify that your engine model is compatible with the specific option (Option 1 or Option 2) of the B-G Racing BG5134 stands. Ensure you are attempting to mount to the correct locations on the engine block.

Engine feels unstable on the stands.

Check that all mounting bolts are fully tightened to the engine block. Ensure the stands are placed on a level and stable surface. Confirm you are using both the left and right hand stands.

Difficulty mounting due to interference with other engine components.

For Duratec engines, try loosening the OEM inlet manifold as per the product description. If interference persists, re-evaluate the engine model compatibility or consider minor component adjustments if safe and feasible.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Securely bolts to the engine block for maximum stability.
  • Durable construction with a corrosion-resistant powder coat.
  • Includes both left and right hand stands for balanced support.
  • Simplifies engine handling during storage and transport.

Cons

  • Specific fitment requires careful checking against the engine model.
  • May require loosening of the OEM inlet manifold for certain Duratec installations.
  • Not suitable for non-Ford engines.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The stands are designed to bolt directly onto the engine block. Ensure all mounting bolts are securely tightened. For Ford Duratec engines, it may be necessary to loosen the OEM inlet manifold slightly to allow clearance for the stand.

Compatibility: This specific model (BG5134) is available in two options: Option 1 fits most retro Ford engines including Pinto, X-flow, Pre X-flow, Lotus twin cam, BDA, and BDG. Option 2 is designed for Ford Duratec engines. Always confirm your engine model against the product's specified fitment list.

Care: Clean the stands with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. The powder-coated finish provides corrosion resistance, but regular inspection for damage to the coating is recommended.
