Tack weld some braces to help hold it.. then start your stand.. james is correct, the engine stand is the most important part.. you do not want to be climbing the ridge and have the motor stand buckle and engine fall into the bottom of the boat with the prop spinning wide open... Airboats, airboat kits, airboat hulls, auto engines, airboat accessories and much more � armor structured engine stand built with vibration reducing rubber mounting system. � fully upholstered single rear seat with rain cover. � protective propeller guard covered with 2" x 4" wire mesh. plans to help you.. These airboat engine mounts provide tightly controlled vibration isolation from the engine to the engine stand (with rubber bushings) while limiting the maximum dislocation of the engine, reduction unit and propeller assembly to a very small 3 dimensional area..
