Bill,

My pipe is a Tam Pipe. Tam has straps that go around the outside of the pipe nozzles that are movable/adjusatable. They have a 4/40 blind nut on them. I uses a piece of 4/40 all thread and made my stand off. It has a nut on the inside of the fiberglass nozzle to adjust my distance and the the outside lock nut to tighten it all in place. on the front I have a piece of hardwood that is glues/bolted through the belly ( 1/2X3/4 ) at the 6 o'clock position standing vertically with a 8/82 threaded insert buried in the top ( Dubro ) and a 8/32 bold through the thick part bell mouth to hold the pipe in place. The height measurement is critical for centering of the pipe. then at 10 and 2 o'clock I drilled a hole in the bellmouth and used safety wire to anchor the pipe to the rear wing spar former thats between the pipe and engine. That whole set up is rock solid. that cannot move any direction at all. I'll try to get some pic's of the front, but it's hard to see with the engine in there... send me a PM or e-mail with you phone # and I'll be glad to visit. I have built 5 of these airplanes, and there are a few other things I would likr to talk with you about. Great project, your gonna love it !!!.

P.S. It's the the big Gray thing in the front !!!
