I'm making progress on getting the 13B installed in my BD-4, thanks

to the engine mount I received from Jerry last week.  It's solid as a
rock, and extremely light.

I still need to fabricate a rear mount.  (The 2X4 has to go!)  Jerry
talked about using a tube with rod end bearings at each end, but the
bracket on the firewall is very nearly even with the place on the block
where I need to attach, so I'm thinking a Barry isolator might work
better.  The bracket on the firewall was originally intended for a nose
gear attachment.

Great work Jerry, and great design Paul.

I particularly like the salad bowl firewall recess. It looks very professional- seriously.
