Thanks Skip,
You're right there, but I'm not sure that vertical strut wouldn't hit further forward.
Or, if not, why couldn't one angle the strut forward a bit to hit in a
better spot?
It's kind of hard for me to tell on my fuselage since the struts and flying wires
aren't attached, where everything wants to go.

| Subject: | leaning the carb |
Chuck-----Before I left for Brodhead (by the way it was great to see you
again) I was burning way too rich---about 5.5 gph. After wiring the
mixture control only about 3/32 of an inch from the full rich stop my fuel
burn went to 4.0 on the nose per hour at 2150 rpm. All I know is
that my plugs were running dusty carbon black and now they run a perfect
light tan dust.

Hey guys,
In looking where the vertical strut could go, I came across an idea that sounds
strange, but seems to make sense.
Since the rear strut is in the way, why couldn't one run a strut from the cabane
attach to a fitting on the strut itself, then run your vertical up from the
wheel to this strut fitting? The strut would experience no stress, except perhaps
a bit of tension between the lower attach and this new fitting, it would
be similar to the original great lakes gear. the chief concern I see is any for
and aft movment, but if the strut is in line this shouldn't occur.
thoughts?

During the fly-in at Brodhead, Rob Bush had to be the ambassador of good
will. He greeted us upon landing with
bottled cold water, beer, or any other need we might have had from oil to
rags, to you name it. What a nice guy
from the Lake Chautauqua area of New York State. Here are some photos to
put faces and names together.
For the rest, I'll post them on the photoshare so I don't clog up anybody's
in-box download time.

Well, the winning bidder hasnt responded and it's been
3 days since the auction ended, and thus, according to
eBay, I can make the engine and all it's accessories
available again to anyone interested. First reasonable
offer takes it. I know it's a longshot, but if anyone
wants to trade it directly for a Continental or
Corvair I'd be a very happy Camper. :)
I'll consider crating it up and shipping if someone
wants to pay for it, although I'd MUCH prefer a local
pickup. The only trick in shipping would be the large
cowling.

Richard,
I had bid 500.00 and was the 2nd highest bidder, but I might be able to go a little
higher (not much). Let me know and I would probably come up to get it.

someone responded to me saying they had been emailing with Richard, but I accidentally
deleted it before I could respond. I don't want all of the stuff, maybe
we could combine an offer. Please email me outside the list again.
