Subject: RV-4 Cantilver Mount - Left upper

This is a better picture of the left upper mount.  Note that the cylinder
on the rear of the mount is 'slotted' (look CLOSELY) and is open for about
25% of the circumference.  This allows the rubber mount bushing to be
inserted to the back side of the mount.  This mount is to work similar to a
lycoming conical mount.

Ken,
Why not use the large aluminum lug at the top of the motor? (Alt mount?)  Looks
solid and well placed.
