Once the cowling came off and I started going though things, I found them. One on each side. However, the paint on the engine mount wasn't removed. Good thing really. ALSO, notice the primer line. It was installed backward. The fitting on the back where the input line goes was cocked over to the side. The input line is broken off. Once the primer line was turned around, things fit a lot better ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 12:41:40 PM PST US From: Gary Vogt Subject: TeamGrumman-List: Cont: annual on Tiger A home made nose gear boot with a zipper down the back side. ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 12:41:54 PM PST US From: Gary Vogt Subject: TeamGrumman-List: annual on Tiger continues THis one is kind of hard to see. THis is looking into the airbox. The airbox has been rewelded a number of times. Lots of doublers installed. ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 12:42:02 PM PST US From: Gary Vogt Subject: TeamGrumman-List: Cont: annual on Tiger Someone took the time to patch a hole in the heat muffler. BUT, they didn't remove the screw that was too long. ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 12:42:03 PM PST US From: Gary Vogt Subject: TeamGrumman-List: Cont: annual on Tiger --- these are all different. First pic: heat riser clamp broken. Next pics: Look closely. These are pics of the inner cylinder baffle. I first noticed that it had been installed with the plate on the outside between the fins. Then, I looked inside. It's an inner cylinder baffle for an O320. It's 1/2 inch too short. Between this, the missing baffle straps, poorly installed baffle seals, and baffles so bent and worn through, it's a wonder there are no signs of excess heat on the cylinders. ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 01:40:16 PM PST US Subject: Re: TeamGrumman-List: Cont: annual on Tiger From: FLYaDIVE HEY! I like that idea Gary... A ZIPPER ... Did it also have a split ring for the mounting? What material was used for the boot and was it stiffened for where it mounts to the plane around the ring?

Yes, someone cut the ring. I have. Better solution. Sent from my iPad On Mar 13, 2011, at 1:37 PM, FLYaDIVE wrote: > HEY! I like that idea Gary... A ZIPPER ...
