I'm in the throws of designing an engine mount for the 13B
in my Long EZ.  Does anyone have, or know the whereabouts on
the web of a drawing of the engine in dwg or dxf format.  I
have the gif drawings that Ed Anderson was kind enough to
post, but I'm thinking more on the line of a drawing with
all points referenced off the E shaft center line.  My
engine is still being built up at Hayes so I can't do this
on my surface table at home.  If I had all my wishes the
engine would have a 12A front cover. If the other reference
surface was either the bell housing mating surface or the
front cover mating surface I could just measure the 12A
front cover and add it in.

Thanks to all,

13B + LEZ

Rick,
Thanks for giving me a chance to post another picture of my RV-4 mount.  I used a
'83 12A front cover.  Tracy had a 1/4 scale drawing of the 13B in his newsletter a
couple of years ago and this is what I used in planning my installation.  I looked at
the old issues of Tracy's newsletter but could not find the drawing.  Does anyone
else know what issue to find this drawing?
