I got it set up to where I think it will fit in the Tango cowling.
 We shall see after Sun N Fun when I will be at the Tango factory
 in Florida.

 This is a p-port RX8 engine not quite mounted.

 details ..details.. better in the next few days.

 Paul, Do the mounting tubes have RH thread on one end and LH thread
 on the other end or do you have to take the bolt out and turn the
 rod ends?


 george grimes.

 That makes adjustment a bit easier.
 I did not do that as it would up the cost for rod end adapters.
 Twice the initial investment.

 The down side is if a jam nut gets loose the tube can change
 length from vibration. Worse case it can unscrew it self :)

 Paul Lamar


Isn't that what lock wire is for?  I couple of strands on each tube
would keep them from "self adjusting" due to vibration.

True.

Too right Mark, safety first.
