The first thing was for Brian to fabricate an engine mount for the 300 Lycoming.
Here is the custom made oil tank. The box on the firewall has the alternator regulator and starter and master solenoids inside.
Here Brian is installing the engine for the final time. All oil lines and fuel lines are hooked up. Just four bolts, a couple of lines and some linkage.
C3B Engine Installation
The first engine run is always exciting.
You can now see the finished product.
Here you can see the support for the fairing that fits behind the spinner. You can see the prop governor sticking out. 300 Lycoming with Wright valve covers?
