Paul and All,
Michael Hayes in Australia ( Melbourne) is another one who
has had
the run
around from Fred. He has taken the money but not supplied,
with all the
promises in the world. Perhaps someone over there should
approach him on
behalf of all the people who are disgruntled customers.
I will pass this discussion onto Michael so that he's aware
that
he's not
the only one.
George ( down under)
Yes I received my mount about 2 weeks ago, I'd hope that by now
he's
catching up with his backlog...the mount looks good, I now have
it on my
plywood firewall mockup to start figuring out where everything
will go.
I would guess that soon you'll have yours. I'm glad that I
didn't wait
'til a few weeks before I needed it to order. I ndid make
numerous phone
calls, which he returned, and a few e-mails which he answered.
Hope you get it soon.
Harold
What did the mount cost Harold ?
What does it weigh?
Paul Lamar
I never thought to weigh it, but I'll take it down in a few days
a get a
weight., The price was about 1200 + 103 shipping to FL. The pic
in his web
site (RV9A) is my mount. At least that's what he told me prior to
shipping.
It was crated very well. I believe the whole package weighed 49#.
That's it
'til I get you a weight
Harold
Hi All,
Does anyone else build a engine mount for the Renesis engine other
then
Conversion Concepts? I need a five point mount. I have had an
order in
with Conversion Concepts for some time now, and should have had my
mount
long ago. I sent Fred my balance for the mount back in July, and
still no
mount! I have e-mailed Fred as to what the problem is and he told
me that
he was waiting on a backorder of isolators. The isolators are
now in, but
Fred now tells me that he has got the thrustline exactly 2 inches
off on
three of his orders, and has to start all over again. Of course
one of them
is mine. I will ask Fred for a full refund if I can find someone
else who
can build me a mount.

Jerry Hey can build you a mount. What kind of airplane are you
building?
Jerry Hey <jerryhey@earthlink.net>
Paul Lamar
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the info. I'm building a L-164 Bush Caddy, 4 place STOL.
Bob F. (up state NY)
Your welcome. You will need to supply Jerry with strips of sheet metal
match drilled between the motor mount holes on the firewall so the
mount
will fit the firewall exactly.
Paul Lamar
Bob, Send me a picture of your firewall and also the distance from
the firewall to the prop flange. That will give me a rough idea of
the project and we can go from there. Note, all my engine mounts use
the S-beam. I have not built an engine mount for a Renesis. but if
the bell housing bolt pattern is the same as the 13B, then I can do
it. Jerry
