I made a few years ago and all i used was 1/4 gauge 2" box section with a notch cut out of one side, then to get a snug fit weld the piece you cut out to the opposite side of the box section (opposite side to the notch). Then all i used was a large spanner over the box section resting on an axle stand so all force was going not into the engine and mounts but onto the axle stand. Then a 3/4 torque wrench set to 450 Nm and a bit of medium strength locktite on the threads. After the *uck up last year to bad workmanship which cost 10 new valves and over £1000 quids worth of damage and cost, and 4 days lost out of my holiday entitlement. I wasnt taking any chances.
