Zusammenfassung:	An improved sled for fixturing engine blocks includes an inclined mounting surface which can be supported at alternate inclinations for fixturing engine blocks having various V-angles. A preferred embodiment utilizes a two-way frame which is removably mounted on the sled for supporting various V-blocks with the main bearing cap in place. Air float means are also preferably provided for lifting the sled above a supporting surface to facilitate maneuvering the sled. One preferred embodiment includes a novel means of aligning and securing an engine block on the sleds which includes a sling for rotatably engaging and lifting a block.
