Engine stand for I-5

[Ameer Antar]

I'm thinking of getting an engine stand for my I-5, but I don't know if it
needs a special adapter. If I just get a regular old stand, do I need an
adapter, aka VW/Porsche adapter maybe??? Also I read in the Bentley, that
you shouldn't read bore dimensions w/ the engine in the stand, b/c it
distorts the block....Is it bad to use an engine stand on these engines???
will ir be damaged over a long time??? In that case, I might use the engine
mounts to support the block. Thanks in advance.
