Mounting points for Evo 8 motor onto Engine Stand..?

Hi Gents.

As per the title, can someone here please confirm...?
I have the bolts, and there is more than enough tapped gearbox holes to mount the motor onto an engine stand, however I will be using the outer non-tapped block holes, and would just like to be certain these are the correct mounting points...

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.
M

Looking at the block from the flywheel side.
There are two upper tapped holes into the block, and two open holes at the bottom.

Are people making use of the tapped gearbox holes...?
I'm concerned the shear weight of the motor will strip these threads...

Anyone?
