Great conversation piece at parties. And if you have kids you could hang it from
a tree and the kids would have a great time. We tried using ours also as a kind
of weird toboggan, problem is there is no way to steer and if you lean too much
you just tip.

Rick - I bought a cheap canvas rig from aircraft spruce. Was made for dave

I
use ski goggles for eye protection.
There are more aesthetic options out there. Those of you who I've had the

The company is actually from New Zealand (Kiwis, not Aussies), and their product
is extremely nice. Also quite pricey. I sent for their info pack and can vouch
for the very, very nice product and details and if I had the money, I would
certainly buy one of their helmets. I can tell you that the cost of a good
ANR headset is completely lost in the cost of their helmets, though... in the
FOUR figures, if I remember the brochure pricing. I have the brochure if anyone
is interested.
My day-to-day flying helmet is a Navy carrier flight deck crew helmet that I got
on eBay, complete with goggles and David Clark hearing protectors, for less
than $50. Ordinary headsets fit right in the same earcups (like my Pacific Avionics
headset)- but since I'm usually NORDO, I only use the hearing protectors.
Here's a pic.

Rick,
My wife has the same plan for me and I pointed her to Aircraft Spruce. Their stuff
is always good and easy to return if necessary. Plus the prices are reasonable
and shipping is fast.
Also a Google search will turn up all kinds of stuff if you just want to browse.
If you want something unique, follow this link.

If you wan to see one of the dyno pulls, go here and watch it.
It made 87hp at 3000rpm, but its needs some more tuning. it feels like there is
allot more left.
We are having some issues with the marvin schebler carb (MA3SPA), it needs to be
jetted a little leaner, are there different jets available for that carb? i
am coming up with nothing.

Sounds great!
Mostly stock? Or some mods?
Did you ever find a good source for the forklift engine without the balance
shaft?
And what can you tell us about the bearing you've added?

The engine is basically stock except for forged pistons, stainless valves and a

How did you decide that a bearing housing was necessary?
Looks like a great idea, but I thought the forged crank and beefy mains on
that engine would handle the prop loads.

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Slave to fashion
The wife needs to know what I need for Christmas and being a slave to
fashion that I am (like most of my fellow Piet builders), I figure I
have to get one of those cool leather flying helmets/goggles before I
can ever make my first flight. So can anyone recommend a good
website/brand that you like? Also if you are going to use headphones do
you need a different type of helmet?
thanks

How did you decide that a bearing housing was necessary?
Looks like a great idea, but I thought the forged crank and beefy mains on that
engine would handle the prop loads.

Here is a good shot of my bearing housing, it uses 2 timken bearings.
The engine is basically stock except for forged pistons, stainless valves and a
mild porting job. i also used studs for the main bearing and the head.

| Subject: | Horizontal flow Radiator |
With a radiator only 10" high gives more lifting space on the center wing section
and using a horizontal flow, high efficiency design by the Brodhead radiator
people allows a much smaller cooling system. So far it has excellent possibilities,
What would be an objection, other than Bernie's half A radiator doesn't look the
same..
