Hi guys

 Just an update, I need to figure out on this site where to start a log for my build.

My EA 82 is on the bench,cleaned up, together some part off to replace.

Looked into the tubing today and a shop to build it for me.

I think ill be buying foam within the next week or so.

 I am committed now, got $500 invested. I know it going to cost more!

but all in fun right?

Dave

lodoggsdmf   |2010-02-06 08:38:03 I welded a washer inside a piece of pipe then used a hole saw to cut rubber washers out of some heavy 3/8" mats and stacked them on each side of the washer till I got the desired thickness which was two rubber washers on each side.

Mike   |2010-02-06 06:49:00 Dave I had trouble finding the rubber they suggest in our plans. Ultimately, I used a circle gasket cutter to cut the required diameter from a soft rubber. That worked really well and is easy to make. Mike

Bee Keeper  - motor mounts   |2010-02-06 10:44:44 Hay Guys Just a suggestion I used hockey pucks just put them in the freezer over night and the next day use a band saw and cut the circle you want and drill the center hole, a hockey puck has about the same consistency as a motor mount it works great for me. Just my nickles worth. Gerry

Bee Keeper  - mounts for engine frame   |2010-02-05 12:49:07 Dave Go to Ger's yellow jacket builders corner and look under Geo engine frame and go to the bottom of the page and you will see a drawing for the isolation pads this is what UH uses

Pete  - Motor Mounts   |2010-02-05 11:55:34 Hi The engine bolts directly onto the engine bearers, bare metal to metal contact. There ARE rubber bushes installed between the metal framework and the wooden engine bearers on the craft deck. The assembly is retained in the craft by four studs which pass through the entire hull and into the plenum chamber. See Sheet 3 on the UH plans "Rubber Engine Mount" and Sheet 1 "Top View" Engine and rudder mount. Hope that this is a help to you! Pete....

Mike   |2010-02-05 10:54:55 Vfrflyboy No, the stand has rubber mounts instead. Mike

vfrflyboy   |2010-02-05 10:39:39 Motor mounts? Are the subaru (EA 82) motor mounts used on the frame for 18spw? Not really clear on the print.
