Title: Need Help from cozy or eracer builders
Post by: vonjet on May 22, 2012, 07:13:01 PM
I need some dimensions off the firewall. I need the distance from the engine mount bolts top and bottom as well as side to side. And if you have the distance from firewall to the engine mount rings thy would be helpful. Im trying to see if I can use a cozy mkiv mount for my project. Thanks!

Center to center: 28" wide, 19" tall. Or a square rectangle. Measurement taken off my tub. Firewall to aft edge of top Dynafocal rings 10.45" (taken off the plans). Bottom rings ~.25" longer due to thrust line angle, ~1.5 degrees.

Where are you building it (Cozy? or Eraser?)
Maybe there is another builder a mile or 10 miles from you. ON LOCATION help is much better than throwing out a question to guys who may or may not be expert. How do you know any of us are experts? . Do you belong to the CSA? Terry Schubert sends out a directory every Jan. $30 If you cannot afford $30/year, you cannot build your (whatever you are building, you did not say). ???

Thanks for the concern Bruce. I dont need or expect anyone on here to be an expert.....I am a CSA member and a very experienced builder. I am not building a Cozy or an Eracer. I am however going to use a Cozy MKIV mount for my project. Thanks.
