RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

There MIGHT be enough material on the engine mount to slot the holes and slide it over a hair. I would only have to do this to one side. Or do Ihave todo it to both sides to make...

RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

It is a two piece mount so to make the mount more narrow (to fit the OS) means Iwould have to move the blind nuts just a hair. Idoubt Icould do that without making a new firewall.Iwas hoping...

RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

Iwas thinking about the shims and your "horseshoe" ideais really what would be better than two wafers on their own.

The mount is fiber and its drilled wider than Ineed it to be for the OS engine....

RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

Is it better to mount my replacement engine on its side, or inverted?  I'd like to deflect the exhaust down away from the wings.  If I mount it inverted I'll have to reroute the throttle cable to the...

RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

I've secured the parts Ineed to get the old OS engine Ihave on the Tiger in place of the Thunder Tiger.

RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

The carb came loose but that wasn't the problem today.
Fuel is everywhere - it spits out the carb. I've tried so many things with it.

I have a black head OS Max-H.60 from 1974 that was given to...

RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

Gorilla glue works great for me also. The more moist the two pieces are the more that glue will swell and foam up. Iuse that to my advantage and wet piecesas needed but some people don't like Gorilla...

RE: Goldberg Tiger Club

Great. I have one and I'll put it on. I was thinking the x8 was just too much and even though Ican climb forever I think it's slowing me down.
