I would be very interested in your bunji struts. I live in Missouri so just
let me know how and were you would like the check to be sent. I do thank you
for your time. Chet Hartley

I installed a Lycoming 0-320 engine in my Cherokee using my tractor and a
boom on a three point hitch. The boom was $89 at Tractor Supply. If you have a
friend with a tractor having a 3 point hitch, this might work for you. It was a
very easy installation and the conical engine mount on the Cherokee is
probably harder to stab than plugging a Continental A-65 onto a Piet.

I'm going to be in Chuck's neck of the woods late this month. If someone
along my route home (Wichita and or Kansas City, MO) to Central Texas) makes an
agreement with Chuck for the gear legs, I can drop them off if not too far off
my route home. I'll be heading back to the Dallas area, and then on to 5TA6,
San Antonio Sectional. I'll be on the road back to Texas probably Jan. 31 or Feb
1.

I used a "come-along" suspended from the header beam above my hangar door. Just
suspended the engine and rolled the airframe under neath it.

You don't need a hoist at all. Just set the engine on a table and roll the fuselage
up to it. prop up the tail to the right height, block the wheels, and shim
up the engine till it lines up. use a pry bar to tilt the engine a little.

Almost any cheap hoist would handle a corvair engine. Most of them are made with
long
arms and legs for hoisting engines out of an auto engine bay and take quite a bit
of room to store.
If you only need something to lift a corvair engine onto a Piet, you could probably
weld up
something much more compact or just use a block and tackle from the rafters. At
200 lbs even
a 2x4 truss would hold it.

Chet,
You were the first one to reply, so I guess you get the bunji struts.
There is one other guy down in central Oklahoma that said he would like to have
'em, so if you think you won't use them, I hope you can send them on to
someone else who would use them. I don't know what the shipping would be. I will
pack them up this week, and send them off to you, then let you know what the
shipping was. What is your address to send them to ??
Here is a picture of them, on the plane. I could never keep them tight
enough, so I changed them out for the spring struts. I will also send out a
copy of the details of how to tie the loops on the ends of the bunji chords.

Well, I've just returned from Victoria with no joy
on Dave. His friend Paul hasn't heard from him in
some time either. After returning from the Gulf the
last time he got out of his house and bought a $200,000
boat. He rented a corner of a hanger to store the Piet
and Santa Anna. Paul thinks the boat purchase has
stretched things for Dave as he wasn't his usual upbeat
self the last time they met. He's going to see what more
he can do and call me if successful.
