Hello OC,
I recommend you or your friend post a WTB (want to buy) ad on that other popular
homebuilt forum. We here are only a few (like 20) where as over there are thousands
of builders very actively communicating. Ads there only remain for 30
days so everything posted is pretty fresh.

Hello Sid,
Great to hear from you, and I am glad to see this TR-1 is in good hands.
I made a couple inquiries for you, and both have replied to me. The first is Planemakers
in Florida. They said this is the kind of work they do, and they are
taking a look at Robert R's website to familiarize themselves with the KIS project.
They will get back to me.
The second inquiry was to Rich's former employee Chuck H. He replied while they
are not set up to do this kind of work he knows of a few shops that could do
this work for you. He asked for more details, and he will ask around for you,
and get back to me. Chuck and Steve were very involved in the MX aerobatic airplane
project where they tooled, molded, and assembled airframes that were then
sent out to other shops for completion.
I will keep you advised as to what I learn.
Regards, Mark T.
Randy - not to speak for Sid but he's in a way different time zone -the craft is
located in Fresno.

Hey Mark,
Thanks for the help. And as soon as you get more info let me know please. Just
a small correction here. My aircraft is located at my home in Mira Loma CA. I'
m currently in Camp Humphreys. In South Korea. If you or anyone else needs
more info about my TR-1 I'll be more than glad to expand on it.
Regards
Sid

My Cont. IO-240 B Engine mounts are 16 years old and need to be replaced.
They are conical, of course. What are the ones I need and does anyone have
the instillation instructions, torque?
Thanks,
Tim

Hello Tim, I am surprised that you have not had to replace the vibration
isolators for your IO-240 B engine mount prior to this. These vibration
isolators are rubber or elastomeric material that hardens and sags with
age. Replacing these isolators is a bit tricky for several reasons. One
reason is that the isolators are very similar / identical to, yet in
some respects, quite different than the isolators used for the
Continental O-200 engine. I have had a Continental engineer give me
false information regarding isolators for the IO-240 B because he
assumed that the parts for the O-200 and the IO-240 B were identical in
all respects, which they are not.
It would be very helpful if you have the TCM Parts Catalog Form X30623A
and can look at Figure 12-4 on page 12-8 of that manual. I=99ll
try to give you a description of what is on that page using the
following Index Numbers from Figure 12-4:
12-4-1 Part Number 638225. Bushing. An elastomeric tube unique to the
IO-240 B (Not the same part as used in the O-200, but performs a similar
function as Hose, Part number 628555-16 which is Ref No 1 on the
Aircraft Spruce page below). Four required. Should be replaced.
Expensive. Not readily available. I can give you some purchasing source
information after I get out to the hangar on Sat. Also see below**.
http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/eppages/contmountparts.php
12-4-2 Part Number 530626. Seat, Engine Mount. A steel ring. Same part
as used in the O-200. Eight required. No need to replace these parts
unless damaged or lost =93 can be used over and over. See Ref No 3
on the above Aircraft Spruce page:
12-4-3 Part Number 530740. Bushing, Engine Mount. An elastomeric cone.
Same part as used on the O-200. Eight Required. Should be replaced.
Available from Spruce. See Ref No 4 on the above Aircraft Spruce page:
12-4-4 Part Number 530741. Washer, Cup. A cup shaped steel washer. Same
part as used on the O-200. Eight required. No need to replace these
parts unless damaged or lost =93 can be used over and over.
Available from Spruce. See Ref No 5 on the above Aircraft Spruce page:
12-4-5 Part Number 653695. Spacer, Engine Mount. A steel tube. I
don=99t know how this part for the IO-240 B compares to Part
Number 530627 for the O-200, but it performs the same function. (See Ref
No 2 on the Aircraft Spruce page above). Four required. No need to
replace these parts unless damaged or lost =93 can be used over
and over.
If the above appears confusing I apologize and blame TCM for mucking
this up. Please pay careful attention in order to avoid getting the
wrong parts. I=99ll write a few words about installation in a
separate email.
