Would that possibly be an Extra330SC? I have one with a PTE36 and also a 71" Slick with a PTE36. Good combinations with the larger motors. Vertical is unlimited and throttle management is important as was said earlier. I have a Mezlik 19-8 prop on my Slick and a Vess 19-8 wood on my Extra.

I saw a clever way to grind away the triangle stock on the inside where you would put your washer. You use a flat Robart Carbide tool for your Dremel. You feed the shank of the tool thru the engine mounting hole in the firewall from inside the plane and chuck it up. You can then grind a flat place for the washer to go for your engine bolt.
