Can somebody please post some pictures of their strut mods. I am glad I read this thread as I am about to maiden my NM Pitts. I might put it off until I have a handle on this strut issue. I have a OS 52 4 stroker mounted inverted in her. Nice little plane for the dollars. If it holds up well I might buy some more NM gear. Did anybody beef up their fire wall. There does not seem to be much glue holding it in. I will post some pictures soon.
