    Subject: PLEASE READ - List Fund Raiser Kickoff!
    Dear Listers, Each November I hold a PBS-like fund raiser to support the continued operation and upgrade of the List services at Matronics. It's solely through the Contributions of List members that these Matronics Lists are possible. There is NO advertising to support the Lists. You might have noticed the conspicuous lack of flashing banners and annoying pop-ups on the Matronics Email List email messages and web site pages including: * Matronics List Forums http://forums.matronics.com * Matronics List List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com * Matronics List Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search * Matronics List Browser http://www.matronics.com/listbrowse You don't find advertising on any of these pages because I believe in a List experience that is completely about the sport we all enjoy - namely Airplanes and not about annoying advertisements. During the month of November I will be sending out List messages every couple of days reminding everyone that the Fund Raiser is underway. I ask for your patience and understanding during the Fund Raiser and throughout these regular messages. The Fund Raiser is only financial support mechanism I have to pay all of the bills associated with running these Lists. Your personal Contribution counts! Once again, this year I've got a terrific line up of free gifts to go along with the various Contribution levels. Most all of these gifts have been provided by some of the vary members and vendors that you'll find on Matronics Lists and have been either donated or provided at substantially discounted rates. This year, these generous people include: * Bob Nuckolls of the AeroElectric Connection http://www.aeroelectric.com * Andy Gold of the Builder's Bookstore http://www.buildersbooks.com * Jon Croke of HomebuiltHELP http://www.homebuilthelp.com These are extremely generous guys and I encourage you to visit their respective web sites. Each one offers a unique and very useful aviation-related product line. I would like publicly to thank Bob, Andy, and Jon for their generous support of the Lists again this year!! You can make your List Contribution using any one of three secure methods including using a credit card, PayPal, or by personal check. All three methods afford you the opportunity to select one of this year's free gifts with a qualifying Contribution amount!! To make your Contribution, please visit the secure site below: http://www.matronics.com/contribution I would like to thank everyone in advance for their generous financial AND moral support over the years!

    Subject: New Pistons
    From: "Monty Barrett Sr" <MONTY@bpaengines.com>
    Barretts' have had this ring package for over 2 years. Also an improved piston for over 2 years. From: "George Coy" <george@gesoco.com> Subject: Yak-List: New Pistons MOTORSTAR N.A. 714 AIRPORT RD. SWANTON VT. O5488 TEL. 802-868-2822 E-MAIL <mailto:GEORGE@GESOCO.COM> george.coy@gmail.com FAX 802-868-2822 25 October 2010 Product Improvement Announcement MotorstarNA is proud to announce that we now offer the SPC pistons and rings. The SPC piston kit uses a new piston design and modern technology rings. The new pistons use a 3 ring configuration instead of the original 5 ring design. The top compression ring is a plasma molybdenum ring that produces a superior seal while reducing friction. The second ring is a tapered hook or Napier design that provides superior oil control. The oil ring is also modern design that reduces oil consumption by about 1/3. The overall result is an engine that consumes less oil, more stable operating temperatures through all operating conditions. It runs smoother at idle and it starts more easily. The factory engineer and test cell technicians were surprised at the test cell results. The engineer said of the testing, "After the breaking-in period we measured the parameters at all engine duties and the results were according to the documentation in force. After this we have set the engine at Cruise I and it worked at this duty for one hour. We did this test in order to determine the oil consumption. The result is amazing. The oil consumption at Cruise I is 510 grams per hour or 2.83 grams per HP (specific oil consumption) or 0.575 liters per hour (the density of our oil is 887 grams per liter" Typically the M14-P consumes about 0.8 liter per hour. He also said "Beside the oil consumption we observed also other improvements. The engine start is easy; the temperatures (CHT and oil temperature) are constant in time and the idle is more stable." The SPC piston kits are available in standard bore size (105 mm) and R1 first oversize (.15 mm oversize). Each kit includes a new piston, 3 fitted rings, a new piston pin, two new piston pin plugs, a new cylinder base gasket, two rocker cover gaskets, two new rubber tube for the push rod tubes new cylinder nut lock tabs and installation instructions. The new piston is 34 grams lighter than the standard piston. The SPC kit includes a new piston pin plugs that are heavier to keep the engine in balance. The standard size kit P/N 14-605-22SPC is $304.00 per kit. The oversize kit is P/N 14-605-22SPC-R1 is $328.00 per kit. There wil be an additional 5% discount on orders of 9 kits. MotorstarNA will soon have these kits in stock at our Vermont headquarters. George Coy CAS Ltd. 714 Airport Rd.

    Isn't there a gauge that you can plug and play just converting the numbers from what ever they use to U.S.? Isn't 100% in Russian = to 100% U.S.?

    From: "barryhancock" <bhancock@worldwidewarbirds.com>
    Mike, Great to hear and welcome to the community. I always tell people that the community of great people is as much responsible for the fun we have in our airplanes as the planes themselves. Hopefully you will find the same to be true. Make sure you sign up for the RedStar Pilots Association and plan to attend All Red Star next Spring....it's a can't miss event and this being the 10 year "reunion" it should be quite a gathering. If there's anything we can do the help, let me know! Happy Flying! Barry -------- Barry Hancock Worldwide Warbirds, Inc.
