RE: VQ A6M5 Zero Build Thread
Well, I guess the nylon mounts are somewhat flexible, and may be I can pull it together a little with a clamp and mount the engine. Not sure if it is a good idea… but I’ll try it.
I ran into another problem, the instruction call out the prop washer to be 106 to 108mm from the fire wall. The throttle barrel is rubbing up against the corner of the motor mount, and the steel washer. Pushing the Saito 56 back as far as it will go and still allow the throttle lever to rotate freely, the prop washer will be 112mm from the fire wall. I guess that would be o.k….
Now, another problem. One of the motor mount is not flat, it has a slight taper where the engine is to be mounted. And it is like that on both sides…. I need to think what I want to do… replace it? use it?
