It ad fo the cheap-o yoke said VW/porsche because they were refering to the 914's 4 cylinder motor...definately not suited for a flat 6!
I'd go with Doug...buy the nice factory yoke and get a cheapie generic engine stand to mount to te yoke. That would be a prety swet setup! i WANTED A FACTORY YOKE, JUST COULDN'T AFFORD ONE. i MODIFIED A STANDARD STAND BY TRIMMING THE LONG MOUNTING TUBES SHORTER TO ACEPT THE STUDS ON A 91 MOTOR. (****...HIT CAPS LOCK) Any way, it can be done, and it will work,,,but as others have noted, it isn't strong enough to hold one side only or is big enough to fit the clutch over.
as far as lifting the engine to the stand... a chery picker is definately nice. i had three of my friend help me lift my bare longblock onto the stand which wasn't bad...but taking i off required me renting an engine hoist from a place in town.
