Hi all,
Am I reading this right. Are you after the Mustang
fire wall dwg and
mounting details for the hard points?
Regards Don

Yes Don, and the position of the thrust line and the
length of cowl from
firewall to spinner.

Don,

Do you have easy access to a firewall dwg and
hardpoints?

Our thrustline, and length from firewall to prop
flange is a little different from memory. We asked
Jerry for just a little more room between engine and
firewall and wanted to move the weight forward a
little).

I'll get those details together this weekend (unless
Jerry Hey gets this mail.. do you still have the specs
of our engine mount Jerry??)

The spinner to prop flange is correct on the dwg. If you plan to change
this or use wing tanks I would suggest you check the CG. I can send you
a spread sheet to work it out.
I am using a Prince Tip propeller of wood carbon fiber which is light. I
am also using the Renesis engine. Should you go for a turbo or any other
I would look close at the CG. I have also a hard top which added some
weight to the plane. Light I am at 380 kgs. I have found it is best to
work and check weight and balance as you go. I had a major shift when I
changed from a turbo engine to the Renesis. Please check.
Regards Don
