Subject: Rocket-List: Replace / Repair Rocket Exhaust Pipe  & Replace / Repair
(?)  Spinner Front Plate


N85TP, HR II, completed 1996, now lives at Manassas, VA, Regional. 


I'm new guy to Rocket and couple problems showing up on my first annual: 


1. Warped flange on the aft left section of the cylinder #6 exhaust pipe --
 causing exhaust leak. 


It=99s the original pipe, believe John Harmon=99s early design 
(have asked him about it) =93 bad section is on right side of attache
d photo. 


Anybody know if / how I can get replacement part, or maybe a great welder w
ho could remove / replace the flange? Other ideas? 


2. Original fiberglass 15=9D dia. Spinner=99s prop hub front pl
ate is damaged; it=99s 10 5/8=9D dia., attached inside spinner 
with four screws and to Hartzell prop hub with four bolts. Attaching photo.
 Ideas for who to contact for a replacement? 


Thanks, 


Tim Carey

Tim, I removed my original exhaust and installed a Larry Vetterman system, m
uch improved and worth every penny.He may also be able to help with repair,,
although once removed my old system had cracks I couldn't see until off airp
lane. Replacing improved performance as well. 
 Spinner bulkhead, try aircraft spruce. FYI. A Cessna 310 spinner will R&R p
erfectly.
