Greg,
I'm at Ferny Grove 33515448, if you wish to give me
a ring, we should get together.
I have no drawings on the pan, it's my latest idea
and my AutoCAD's on the blink. The Son has the original disk somewhere but were
yet to find it.
Give me a call and give me your number and we
can discuss your application.

Hi George, I live in Brisbane ( south side
of the river). I've already started down this route so I'll see where it
takes me. I haven't any machining ability so this is the easiest way, I
think.
Got any drawings of the reinforced oil pan?
That sounds interesting.
Regards Greg
Greg,
Your correct, postage to the US and vice versa
is very expensive. I sent a Bellhousing to the states and it cost
$100.
Where are you located?
I have designed a Bellhousing with integral
engine mount pads (very strong). You can have one at cost and do your own
machining if you wish OR you could use a new design of mine which is a
reinforced oil pan come engine mount. This incorporates the flatplate type
design with oil pan modifications - currently in use.
This all presuppose you have the 'where with
all' to fabricate or machine. I can organize the fabrication of the oil pan
out of chrome molly (at cost).
This the way I will go for my single, if
you wish to be involved I'm in Brisbane.

Dear Greg
I
understand what you are saying about the shipping. Over here if you want
to have a c&c mach shop do just one plate the set up charges
would knock your socks off. I have a shop that has the program
already made up so the price for 20 units is more affordable. send
me some pic when you get done. Have a look at my web site techwelding.com.
thanks
Regards

I'm in Australia. As far as I know no
one as posted a drawing of the plate so I thought I might as well.
I don't see why it wouldn't be the same for every airframe.
What I have to do is print a full scale drawing and check it against my
sump and I'll post any changes.
Regards
Greg
Dear Greg
It looks
exactly like the ones I have but without Dim I can't say for
sure.Where are you located? Good luck.

Thanks Ed, but freight would cost
more than I can make the thing for I'd expect. I'm not exactly
local. Does my drawing look correct compared to the
original. It's cut out for Barry 22002-12 mounts.
Regards Greg
Dear Greg
If
interested I have mount plates all machined up ready to
go.

Starting RV8 engine mount
Hi, I started the engine mount for
my RV8 with Renesis engine today. Copying the basic design of
the CCI mount for which I was ripped off, I bought
some Al plate 0.5" thick to fit between sump and engine and made
a CAD drawing so the water jet cutters can finish it off.
I've attached the drawing for anyone interested. I haven't
had it plotted to full size scale yet so there may be some
errors.
With some of the excess Al I'll
make a spacer to fit between the oil pickup and engine so the
pickup is lowered by the same amount as the plate. The oil
pickup uses an O ring for a seal so I'll get the spacer machined
to take an O ring as well. The drawing shows 2 spacers I
thought I may as well have a spare since it's just scrap
material.
Regards Greg
