Default Engine Displays

Any suggestions on an engine stand that's designed for long-term displaying? When I pull the original L-82 (which isn't going back in) I thought it would be neat to clean it up and have it as yet another decorative garage piece alongside my Corvette signs, vintage gas pumps, and Indiana Jones crap.

The standard bell house support stand would work, but for long term make sure you have some front support.

Their are four wheel stands that use the motor mount holes and the bell housing hole. Can be rolled around to clean under it.

I think displaying it in another Corvette would be cool.
