Do you need an expensive run stand to start an engine at home?

No, according to Steve. People see stands on the internet for $1,500 or $2,000, but any stand that will hold your engine makes it pretty easy to hook up and run the engine at home as long as you want. His red stand is made for a 59-style or Series One and Two engine, and the extra equipment on it came off the stand under his small block Chevy.
