Hi Steve,
You could use an engine stand for the front end (I did before I made my
current stand) which is available from Screw Fix
(http://www.screwfix.com/product.phtml?7305). It will let you rotate what
ever you bolt to it by 360 degree's. Then you've only got to figure out the
back end.
Cheers,
Mark.
