Our take on the Twister Engine Stand

The Twister is a rotating engine stand built for heavy gas and diesel blocks, rated to 2,500 lbs. A 60:1 gearbox on a 2-inch main shaft lets one person turn a balanced load through 360 degrees, so the top, bottom and sides of the block are reachable without unbolting it. It rolls on heavy-duty metal casters and comes with a dolly. Unlike fixed stands, it needs a model-specific adapter plate, sold separately, to mount each engine family. It suits shops and serious home builders working on Cummins, John Deere, Ford and similar engines.

Pros

Cons

  • Height is adjustable but the stand is bulky to store
  • No plate means no mount, so a new engine family needs a new plate

About the Twister Engine Stand

The Twister Engine Stand is a rotating stand that gives access to all points of an engine or other power component. It rotates 360 degrees and holds any well-balanced load. It works with most gas and diesel engines, and with transmissions and similar components.

The stand is built from high-strength steel. Its adjustable head and adjustable mounting arms fit a variety of engine sizes and configurations. Adapter plates let you mount small to medium weight engine blocks, transmissions and other components.

A dolly is included. Swivel casters move the stand around the workspace, and a locking mechanism holds it steady while in use. The stand is made in the USA, formerly by K&S Steel Products of Greensburg, IN, and now by Thieman Quality Products.

Questions and answers

Does the Twister come with an adapter plate?
No. Adapter plates are sold separately. The stand includes the dolly. You pick the plate for your engine, such as Cummins 5.9L or Ford 6.0L, or a universal 4-jaw or blank plate.
What engines fit the Twister?
Plates exist for International 400 Series, 466E and VT 365; John Deere 400 and 500 series, 8.1L, 329 and 6C41; Cummins 3.9L, 5.9L, 6.7L, B Series and 8.3L; Allis Chalmers 301 and 426; Case 504; and Ford Genesis, 6.0L and 6.4L. A universal 4-jaw plate and a blank plate cover others.
How much weight can it hold?
Up to 2,500 lbs for a well-balanced load. That covers most gas and diesel engine blocks and many transmissions and power components.
How does the rotation work?
A 60:1 gearbox turns the 2-inch main shaft, so a balanced load rotates through 360 degrees slowly and under control. That gives access to all sides of the block without removing it.
How big is the stand?
It measures 56 inches long and 38 inches wide, with adjustable height. Plan for floor space and clearance to swing the engine.
Can I mount a transmission on it?
Yes, the stand is described for small to medium weight engine blocks, transmissions and similar power components, within the 2,500 lb limit and with a suitable adapter.
Where is the Twister Engine Stand cheapest?
At Thieman Quality Products, for $2,999.99, as of our latest check.
