Just wondering if anyone out there has an extra conical mount & rubber engine mounts that they want to get rid of at a reasonable price.

No one responded to your post. I had a local sign making facility water jet cut mine. Wasn't all that hard. The mounts came from aircraft spruce . I will have to dig up the part number from my notes .Let me know.I will put some pics of mount and rubber mount in my album.

I am in need of a RING, plan A-478, with the mod for the S4LN-20 mag on the RH side, S4LN-21 on the LH side. I already have the engine mount, plan 479, that I obtained from Barry Hall. Does anyone have one they would like to sell? BTW, that is one mighty fine looking ring you have there jtball. Care to share what it cost to have one water jet cut in Australia?

Thanks James for the pics. I can see the part number on the packaging from Spruce. I will pick up a set from them

I will look into what the cost are for the conical aluminiun ring manufacture. Would be more economical if we made a batch of them. I wasted a lot of plate to make mine.Any one else looking for one?

Can anyone say for sure if T351 or 6061 T6 aluminum is satisfactory for making the engine A-478 ring? I have located some of this, but don't want to buy it until certain that it is satisfactory. Also, I have located a company here in Kansas City, that will waterjet cut it for $113.00, if I provide the material, or $294.40, and they will provide the material, T-351. They also said that they could waterjet cut 5 rings for $63.00 apiece, but that price of course does not include the material. Does anyone have some old (.75) 2024 T4 Alum plate laying around that they would like to sell?
