Default BME 50 Header needed

Does anyone know where I can find a wrap around header for a BME 50 engine? I dont know if the bolt pattern is similar to any other engines, but if it were even that would be a help. I would like to put an MTW TD75K can on a new Wild Hare Honda scheme Sukhoi.

If it's an echo pattern, (the bolts are at oposite corners) then you can make one from the parts that http://www.aircraftinternational.com/ sells. Macs products in Sac. Ca. can make custom stuff too.

If its a DA or 3W type (bolts strait across) then you can usualy file a grove in the header to make the bolts fit.

Thanks altavillan, I will check the bolt pattern. I forgot that a header uses through bolts to hold it on, not threaded holes. Info is greatly appreciated.

Karl Mueller can make you a custom one for the BME 50 out of alum. Made to your specs. He is making me a set for a BME 110 right now.
