Engine Stand Recommendations?

I'm considering rebuilding my 85.5 engine, and am finding (online) a huge variety of prices for engine stands - like from around 50. to 500. My sense is not to go for the el cheapo versions, but I don't need or want to go overboard either. Any recommendations? What about buying used? Thanks!

Harbor freight has one that works great. They are pretty cheap too and there is usually a store in pretty much any big town.

I just had a friend buy a Harbor Freight engine hoist and stand. Pretty cheap stuff, definitely works OK. If you are just planning on using it once or twice then I'd say it's the way to go.
