I am building a turbo normalized rotary right now.  I want to have it
totally completed in the next month.  I am starting the engine mount
this next week and will be making the oil pan accordingly.  How is the
actual S-Beam made.  What material, etc.  I appreciate any information
you could send my way.  I am convinced the rotary engine is the best
powerplant for aircraft.

Also, what material and thickness is the oil pan aluminum?

I have read most of your information concerning your engine mounts.  I
agree that the S-beam is the best way to mount the engine.   I will
attach a picture of the engine I am mimicking regarding the turbo
install.  I am only normalizing the engine.  I want to start the S-beam
today.  What are the dimensions on the bar.  It looks like 3” wide or
so.  I have already ordered the Barry mounts.  They should be  here in a
few days.  Thank you very much for your help.   I am mounting the
radiator behind the seat in the fuselage for C.G. reasons.  Thank both
of you very much for all of the help!
