If your stand has the adjustable "Z" type mounting brackets, you may be
able to bolt it right to the engine.  I bolted these brackets to the
10mm bolt holes on the side of my Renesis without an intermediate plate.

I can get these measurements if no one else has them handy.

I added a pic of my engine stand.
I'm not sure if the factory stand head will work on a renesis.
Did you mean that with Z-type?
