The 1000 lb. stand from Harbor Freight is a 4-point. I picked one up on special at my local store for $40 last week, which is the same price as their 750 lb. stand with 3-points, usually. It works fine and is very similar to the Goodyear one pictured above.

Along with the Mainely Design engine adapter ring for $150, I have a workable solution for less than the cost of the Sir Tools adapter alone.

Jim,
I feel much better now that you have a good stand. You might want to invest in lighting and a good LED flashlight if those are not already covered.
