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?

I have plenty of gifs and jpgs Ken. Rick is looking for a DWG file.
Good luck Rick. Not only do you need a DWG file or DXF file but you need it for the
version of CAD program that you are using. DWG and DXF are generally not interchangeable
between CAD versions. BTW what CAD program and version number are you using Rick?
I think your best bet is do do a new DWG for your CAD program
by using the dimensions off of these gifs.
Sorry Ken some other time on the picture of your motor mount.
