This is probably overkill, but here's a site that shows how a company prototyped one. They sell them now. You might get some ideas. http://www.banderlog.com/engineStand/EngineStandHistory.html

Johnboy,
Not sure what stage your chassis is at, but here's what I do. I just drop the engine on the chassis, bolt it up, set the radiator in place, hook up the fuel, battery, lay a temp and oil pressure gauge on the frame and light it. P.S. if the torque convertor is hooked up, unbolt it and push it back from the flexplate.

Measure twice; cut once, ie. "I cut it three times and it's still too short"
