Default RE: NEW DLE30!

<div id="post_message_1405649">Can anybody recommend where to get 40mm standoffs for the DLE-30 in the US? I'm going to enlarge the firewallholeon my 25% MX2 to accept the engine carborator in order to get the neccessary spinner to cowling clearance.

I found these at Seacraft: http://www.secraft.net/shop/step1.php?number=611. But they also have a similar type too?: http://www.secraft.net/shop/step1.php?number=681

My longer stock DLE standoffs are threaded on both ends for 5mm I believe, but I assume with the 40mm standoffs you could alsojust use one bolt to go through the standoff and into the firewall. I've noticed the mounting holes on the engine are also threaded so this would work as long as the new standoffs were not threaded and a single 5mm bolt would fit through them.

Sorry to sound confusing, I just don't want tospend $30 yet onsomething thatmay notwork.</div><! / message >
