Hey guys,

I have searched everything i could think of but can find it. How do i mount the engine to the engine stand? I could have swore i saw it front the front of the engine with the transmission attached it to too, but i can find anywhere to mount it there. Does it mount from the transmission end or the clutch fan end?

Thanks guys!

Mount it where the bell housing bolts to the block.

I know you asked about the DE but on the E the Nissan method is to mount it useing the Drivers side motor mount bracket. Same for the DE???

Nissan has a stupid mounting bracket thing for the side of the block for all its motors. Not recommended IMO as stands are typically designed for the bellhousing side.
