Paul,  I can refer Bobby to stiffer Barry Mounts but maybe this is
something you would like to consider from an engineering point of view.



Bobby,  Your Barry Mounts are 22002-12.  They have an axial load rating
of 175 lbs. There are four stiffer versions:
22002-13 axial load 240 lbs
22002-14 axial load  380 lbs
22002-15 axial load 630 lbs

There are other Barry Mounts but they will not fit your installation.
Only order the ones above.

Order from AEK Technology
818-686-1445
Greg or Ken Holz owners.  Talk to one of them.

    Jerry,
    
    After 25 hours of ground runs my Barry Mounts failed. I think I
need stiffer mounts. Can you tell me which ones to order?  This is not a
heat issue. But the mounts are in slight compression with the engine in
an almost zero degree up / down thrust line. I actually have about 1
degree of up thrust to take some of the compression off the Barry
mounts. I was hoping for first flight this weekend.
    
    Thanks,
    
    
    Bobby
    
    
    
    
     Others with the CCI mount are also having a problem. I think Fred used
22002-11. They are being replaced with the -14 and seem to be holding
up. I will try the -14's.

Thanks,

Bobby
