Default Re: PAU 36% Edge 540 Build

I’ve had wood rings made from the wood that was provided as box insulation for the shippers. You will want the spinner back plate at least 7-3/4” from the firewall or a 1-7/8” base mount for the motor. I’ve been trying hard to have these made locally at the moment but the costs are pretty high here. I am hoping to hear something in the next few days but I would not count on it. If you have a scroll and some time, this is the way to go and you’ll make DA very happy.

I stacked these up until I achieved the correct distance and mounted the motor. The bolt used were ¼-20 3-1/4” long with lock or compression nuts and fender washers. Now I’ll remove the motor and mark the area on the firewall to cut out. CA all the rings together and drill two holes in the mount for the mixture screws. Now I can remount the motor and install the throttle servo and push rod as I did on the 100.
