Paul.  Could a lightweight foam 13B be cast and sold to those in the

process

of mounting the engine.  This should assist in getting everything in

proper

position with the need of engine hoist and bulky bracing.  They could

be

produced for less than $20 after the first one was created.

I was wondering if one of you guys that was good with a cad program could

draw full size engine slices that could be down-loaded and printed by
whomever needs them. Then we could go to the lumber yard and buy some foam
of the appropriate thickness. We could use the slices for patterns and cut
them from the foam, glue them together and we have a cheap but useable foam
model. Now we just need someone with both the time and talent. Hmmmm

Funny you should mention that. :-)
