Not that I know of. I have had a YS DZ 140 mounted with the throttle wide open for several minutes and it held.

Wood,

I agree, that is a little expensive. I took an old 2 X 6 and cut a "u" shaped notch in one end to fit my engine. Mounted the engine to it, attached a fuel tank and clamped the board to the railing on my deck. It worked great and cost nothing since I had the wood.
