    I just received the Skyloc fastener kit from "Skybolt" and in the instructions
it says that they used 2024T3 .064 for support strips although others have
used thinner strips with good results.  .064 seems pretty thick to me.  I'd like
to find out what others have used?

If I were to do it over, I'd go with .050 as a good compromise.

Hi Guys/Gals,

Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm advertising my newely overhauled
O-320 (150hp-can burn MOGAS) for sale.  Details & photos can be found at:
http://www.steinair.com/engine.htm  The Engine is currently installed &
flying on my new 2004 RV6.  It has 7hrs SMOH, and I'm selling then entire
firewall forward package, including sensenich prop & accessories.  Why am I
selling it??  Well, my other RV6 has an O-360 on it, so I've become spoiled,
and have decided to hang a 360 on this one as well.  Engine was overhauled
by me with nearly new everything.  It's currently flying, so if you want to
hear/see it run, drop me a line.  Price is $19,000.00 for everything
firewall forward including Sensenich prop/spinner, etc...  The detailed list
of all accessories & photos, etc.. is available on my website above.

The engine currently has 7 hrs on it, runs like a top. EGT's/CHT's are fine,
as is oil temp/pressure. It scoots my RV6 along quite nicly at 185-190mph,
but I miss that extra bang on takeoff.  Flying out of a short grass strip in
these hot summer days with a FP prop is making my decision for me. Time will
be increasing as I fly it, and it will be sold first come/first serve.

Cheers,
Stein Bruch
RV6's, Minneapolis.
