    The end of the crank will need machined to a taper to fit the c or b or e gear box

    I was afraid of that.  Rotax Rick gets a lot to rebuild these.  Plus the crank will need machined.

    What are you asking for it?  Does it have a pressed crank or can the rod caps be taken off and new bearings be put on by a regular guy?

    Jim 
    is that copper tubing you put on the ends of the aluminum as a sort of crush sleeve?
    so on a 30 degree day what will it warm the cabin up to?
     
    thanks

    That looks nice do you have any pictures of the scoop or how you vary the heat in the cabin.

    Heater thoughts?
    I want to add a heater to my plane and was wondering if anyone has had success with just capturing heat from behind the radiator and letting it into the cabin passively?
     
    Thanks

  18. THE MACHINIST added a post in a topic Airspeed drastic change with decreased AOA   

    Miracle of miracles my pitot tube static tube aluminum combo ran all the way out to the end of my wing  so I was able to hook a hose to it run that to a T that was already inline.  Voila airspeed works  like it's supposed to.
     
    WHOOHOOOOO

  20. THE MACHINIST added a post in a topic Airspeed drastic change with decreased AOA   

    If there is a port on the second piece of my pitot tube any good thoughts on how to get a tube out to it without slicing the wing up too much.  My thought is to use the ASI tube to pull it through but that will only work if it's not glued or zip tied too securely.

    Does my factory gauge have a port where I could add an outside static source to it?  I didn't see one but when I looked it was a cursory glance 
     
    altimeter and VSI seem to work fine

    Joey sent me a picture of his pitot tube and it is in the same location.  According to him it is very accurate.  My only thought is I have no outside static source it's just take from the back of the ASI.   So I think I will see if my ASI can be set up with one and add an outside one
