Default RE: Engin Mount Questions.

Don't use gorilla force on the strap screws. Just get them tight, yet not bend too far over the engine mounting lugs. Too often the overflexed straps will shear during flight vibration and the engine will fly away from plane; at least to the end of the fuel line. Once again, RIGHT thrust either from the preset firewall angle or adjusting engine angle on the mount.
