OK now start the problems! [:@][:@][:'(]
Firstly,
the
P-36A doesn't come with
pre-installed blind nuts behind the firewall for bolting your engine...
so you must use your own gear.
I
always vote for
Dubro stuff that had never failed on me or let me down!
I "tried" to install
x4 10-32 blind nuts with
10-32x1-1/4' SHCS....
I drilled the firewall with a small drill bit,then enlarged the holes with a #8 drill bit.
Then tried to install the bolts/blind nuts
BUT when you try to draw the blind nuts into place,
the wood is so soft that you end up with no sight of the blind nuts !
And i am really hesitant if this will hold up to the torque of the
Saito 120S....anyone with some advice here ?
Then i drilled the engine mount with a small drill bit and then used an
#8 tap to make some nice threads!
That worked awsome...then i installed the
x4 8-32x1-1/4' SCHS along with the
#8 washers and
#8 safety lock nuts.
All Dubro.
Here are some pictures.
Please give me some advice for the blind nuts.
