Can you tell us what adapter/bolts you used to bolt the engine to the stand?
The longest I could find at the local hardware store was M12 with 1.75 thread pitch, 90mm length. Those worked, but my friend had some that were more like 130mm long. I am not sure where he got them, but they were way more than long enough. The 90mm did work, but I did like the longer length of the longer bolts.
