Default BB Engine stand question

I'm getting ready to put my BB on an engine stand for the first time... Does is make a difference which four holes I bolt the stand mounts to?

Thanks

spread the arms out on the stand and they will line up with 2 upper and 2 lower holes in the back of the block. You want 2 top and 2 bottom spread apart.
