Re: Wanted: Adaptor plate
Engine stands can have different sized tubes were the adaptor fits into, so make sure yours is the same size as the adaptor you get.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas!

Hi Trent,
I did call Lang's to check stock and the lady said they were out since 2021 so might be a long wait. But I appreciate the suggestion. Thank you.

Check with Snyders. The Model A, B and T uses the same adapter.

Re: Wanted: Adaptor plate
They are on backorder at the manufacturer and have been for some time. The parts vendors don’t have any.

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Re: Wanted: Adaptor plate
If you decide to make an adapter plate make the pipe long enough to extend through the engine stand pipe mount so you can turn the engine with a handle or to assist in turning the engine. It does help!

Re: Wanted: Adaptor plate
Yes, I need to get out to my shed, dig it out. I think it has a part number on the box, I can do that tomorrow afternoon. You can use gwh247@yahoo.com. My email gwh1247@yahoo.com which is the one from this site is having password issues on my new laptop, so I am not checking that as often. George
