Charlie Brame RV-6A N11CB San Antonio ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 07:10:04 PM PST US From: Paul Rice Subject: RV-List: Engine mount bolts Hey All=2C I've been flying my RV8 for about 2 years now and it seems that the engine has sagged just a little more than I had planned. I would like to shim it up by putting a spacer/washer between the engine and the Lord mount. As I am not near my plane right now=2C would anybody know the bolt size tha t comes with the Vans mounts=2C Dynofocal on a TMX IO360=2C so I can order one just a bit longer to accommodate the spacer. Thanks in advance=2C Paul Rice RV8 Flying Siren ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 08:18:33 PM PST US From: "DEAN PSIROPOULOS" Subject: RV-List: Misc finishing/elec parts and wood prop for sale.

I did our 6 with an angle drill, for the undersize hole, and then drove the taper ream with an air powered ratchet. I took off some of the exhaust system for better access. It was still a difficult reach and took me most of 2 days. It was worth it though. The nose gear leg really wiggled before and is rock solid now. Aircraft spruce has the taper pins and stuff. Have fun with it.
