Mickey, I've found that a single search always lets items slip through the cracks. I created several searches, such as: Aviation double flaring tool 37 degree...
Michele, I guess I don't see it the same way...it would seem to me that the loads on the crank/hub would be very similar for a prop with a spacer and a prop...

Deene, I agree, it wouldn't matter if you have an extended hub or a spacer. The issue is the increase moment caused by the weight of the prop being father out...

Dear Listers: I'm just now beginning to fit the canopy frame to the fuselage. Weird!! Making the shape of the canopy bow to match that of the roll bar seems to...

Bill, I've seen the exact exhaust system you are referring to. The AET system is a work of art. The two heat muffs surround the two mufflers, so you will get a...

Scott One can of primer and cleaner is more than enough (probably would do 4-5 canopies). I originally bought 2 tubes, based on previous users and ended up...
I used SIKA because it seemed the ideal solution for extreme temperature changes (-40 to +100) and so far it seems to be the way to go. It wasn't difficult to...

I hope to be ordering a blended airfoil Hartzell prop shortly. Engine will be a TMX-0360 with electronic ignition. Vans offers a choice between a 72" and a 74"...
When I was making this decision I asked Van's . . . they recomended the 72" so that's what I purchased . . . don't really know the pro's and con's? Good Luck, ...
The 74" prop will give you slightly more staic thrust but you probably would not know the difference. The higher tip speeds will result in a little more noise...
Hello all. Question, I was told by 2 different Prop shop guy's that the 74" prop will be a little slower than the 72" model. (Hartzell 7666A blades) Both men...
I don't think that is true for the Blended Airfoil prop, But I could be wrong Kirk RV-8 Dakota Queen ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
I have the same exact set up as you (TMX-360 9:2:1 pistions and one Lightspeed) when I talked to Hartzell they said "In theory you should get a little better...
I'm wondering about replacing my inverted fuel pickup hose with a Teflon one (e.g. Aeroquip 666) when I open that tank up for inspection. The regular hoses...
I also went with the 74" Blended airfoil - on the advice of Van's and Hartzell. Same as stated by someone else - you could always shorten it if you wanted! ...
Kevin, I installed teflon hoses - - here's my experience with respect to your questions: 1. Is a Teflon hose as "floppy" as a regular hose? A too-stiff...
Thanks for all the great feedback regarding prop size. Looks like the 74" inch size for the Hartzell blended airfoil is the best fit. -Mike Draper N468RV...
Dumb question, I just drilled all the hinges for my cowling and clecoed them in place. I was not able to remove the cowling after pulling out the horizontal...
... On my cowling, I can grab the aft corners of the top cowl and pull them outwards, which causes the hinge eyes to disengage along the horizontal seam, and...
Taper the hinges or they'll bind. That's probably why you can't get it off. The top cowl will fit very snug but should be able to be removed with only a little...
Hi Bob, I am interested, I have a RV8 with a O360 A1D with an updraft carburetor, Looking at the 4 into 1 system. Regards Alex endspeed <endspeed@...>...
