Default Sizes.

Hi woodscap,

>>Would one of you kindly tell me what size the holes are in the Taurus radial mount to mount the engine to the firewall?

3/16". The mount is 1/8" thick if you want that info to decide how long of bolt to buy.

>>Also, what is the crankshaft size? Drill bit size for the prop?

A few thou under 7/16". It's designed for you to drill the prop to 7/16". Read the thread "center drilling props?" in the Giant Scale Aircraft forum if you haven't drilled large holes in props before. It will give you some ideas on a good way to drill the hole.

Also, feel free to e-mail me directly with any Taurus specific questions like this.
