    Loosen up the bolts on the arms so they can move freely, put bolts into the block, then tighten everything up.

    sometimes you have to make some adapters with flat bar to fit import engines on generic stands

    He should be able to bolt it up without adaptors if it's the type Harbor freight sells.
    Here's a shot of the rear of my engine on the stand
