    From: "woodja51" <mwuillemin@mac.com>
    Agreed , specs exist for a reason ..I was talking about a Housai actually and based on the torque (I) required to break the nuts I was removing at overhaul , as these seemed pretty dang tight and required heat to loosen. I broke a Chinese nut spanner in the process actually ( split it ) The sub-30 values seemed just too light. Also , given most really accurate torques are multi step / angular or stretch based my gut feeling is that with paper gaskets ( which is what China provided ) , wet torqued ( engine oil ) compared to the dry clean M14 system maybe is why there is a difference in values / technique ? Any stress fastener engineer thoughts appreciated. I guess I will see how the overhauled engine goes once I eventually install it I thought about loctite too but my LAME said a waste of time for that situation given they are lock tabbed too. But Im no expert of course just plugging into the forum. Of course a better/ good idea might have been to also replace the studs too but this engine was overhauled due to a supercharger failure and none of the nuts / studs were loose at all. This was a 300 hour since overhaul engine where the blower disintegrated in flight FYI Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=489777#489777

    Subject: Re: What is the cylinder torque value for the nuts at the
    base. Hi; Very interesting comments particularly in the area of "multi step, angular or stretch based" torque. Multi step (1/3 or 1/2 torque value per step) is standard practice and stretched based is a given. That left me with "angular" which I thought may be in reference to the application in sequences of 180 deg. separation. This is also standard practice. But I looked that up and found a very interesting article (Warren & Brown - Australia) that equated "angular" with "torque to yield" technology which applies only to special bolts on which a portion of the head fails when the correct torque (and stretch), within the elastic limit, is reached. A neat idea, also used in aviation in a product called "Hi- Lock" fasteners, though in this case part of the special nut fails at the correct torque. In any event not applicable to cylinder hold down. The one and only specification we have for the torque value is 304 lb/in. This comes from the M14P documentation. We have absolutely nothing from China. This is not a major concern as the hardware is identical, though an English language overhaul manual would be appreciated. Just realized I have not checked the Polish overhaul manual! Will do that. As noted previously I have made some comparison of these cylinder stud specs. with those of Pratt & Whitney and found them to be very similar in strength related characteristics which strongly co-relate with the given torque values. P&W specify 300 lb/in, LUBED. Our engines use 8 studs per cylinder. The R985 uses 12 (450 hp/t.o.) and the R1340 16 studs. (600/t.o.) We have been assured by some on this list that the Russian specification applies only to"clean and dry" threads yet the only reference page that has been provided made no mention of the subject. If this is in fact stated in the manual I would hope they would provide it. If that is correct information it would likely be the only aircraft engine manufacturer in existence to not specify lubricated in this case. I am one of those LAME guys but in Canada we drop the L.

    No matter, how much you mess around with all sorts of torque settings, your real root of the mess is the paper gasket. I bet, nobody with a M 14 has had any troubles there, no gasket , just an o-ring for seal. So there is metal-to metal contact at the cylinder base, no creeping paper due to loads and vibration. Any preload from base studs will vanish with time so instead get a Loctite low strength sealant, anaerobic like thread locks, no silicone or thinner based sealants. There are rubber like or soft plastic type Loctite sealants and I have not used paper gaskets for decades on cylinder bases, they just lead to distorted base flanges and creep under load.

    From: Marcus Bates <marcusbates@att.net>
    I have one Housai engine that should be a good engine. It was purchased from China by my father as a zero time since overhaul. When it arrived, it was obviously not as presented. We assumed it was a + or- 600 hr. Engine. I have no logs or history on the engine, so it is being offered as is. It has mags, but no carburetor. We were going to the automotive spark plugs ignition. It has been stored in an enclosed hangar, and I am offering it as is, where is, for $3,000.00. I will palletize it and deliver to shipping company of your choice. Contact me at marcusbates@att.net or call 512-699-5455.

    Chris, thanks for the reply. I'll keep your details handy but end of the year maybe too far away atm unless nothing else becomes available. Marcus that one went before we could reply but may have been a non starter as there was no paperwork, thanks all the same. If there's anyone else with a motor for sale please email directly.
