Wicks can't tell me if their homebuilt set of dynofocal mounts EM100-005 is ok
for my 150 hp O-320. Has anyone used them?

Paul, is the engine mount ring the same as the ACS type they sell? If so there
is a good source for the rubber mounts that will cost much less than ACS or Wicks.

Jim, I was not tempted to try it. Now that I know what to expect
there is absolutely no way. Six day cold snap is about over. Ice
should melt today. Snow is on the way, however. Jerry

I just received a pair of gear leg fairings from
STREAM- LINE FAIRINGS , 2320 Chesley rd. North Port , Fl 34288 phone 941-423-3591
for the Buttercup as suggested by Jim C. They are perfect for the Tailwind
or any other Wittman gear leg . They have large for the main and small for
the nose gear . Price was quite reasonable $ 39.95 a pair .

This is how I held the wing in place as I welded the fittings to the
fuselage. The fuselage fittings were bolted to the wing fittings. You can't
see it in the picture but there is a 2x4 under the rear spar also. The wings
are shimmed to level. After the fittings were tacked on, the struts were
also made.
This is my first attempt at posting a picture so I doubt it will work. Jim

Can't find straight 16 footers, that's why the wing looks like it is mounted
crooked. Shim the wings level off the crooked 2X4s. The 2x4s are also
clamped onto the door posts with 1/2 inch thinwall conduit clamps. I put
1/8-3/16 inch dihedral in the wing setup as it seems to level out after the
welding is finished on the struts. Jim
