Paul,


I have narrowed my motor mount down to a few choices and I was wondering if
you have anymore pictures of this mount or know the width and height
dimensions on  the firewall attach points?  Also I don't understand where
the engine mount attaches on the exhaust side of the engine. I am assuming
it would be the same as the exhaust side engine mount on my engine
necessitating a curvilinear oil pan.  BTW you sent this pict out on a post
Nov. 8th 2005. titled "Renesis Oil Pan"


Thanks

Well here is what I have. Perry Mick built the mount shown but he did not
use it. Perry made a mock up, this mount and a lot of 2D dwgs. Despite all this
he flies with the engine solidly bolted into his Long EZ to this day.

This mount idea was originally intended by me, for a Cozy and thick composite
plywood cored firewalls.

John Slade flies with it to this day. He reports very little
vibration. John got mad at me after I forced him to fix the initial
go around when his welder left out some critical tubes. He has been
bad mouthing me ever since on anything else he can think of :)

I call it the bushing in firewall trick. Dates back to March 2003 or before.
Pre Rhino.
