43 Engine Installation: Engine Delivery, AntiSplat Moch up

 RV14 Build January

Engine Installation

WHOA!!! The engine is here!! But not the FWF so thats all I can do is be excited lol.


Can't wait to be able to work on this. I need to do all the baffling, install the fuel and oil lines and fitting, remove the impulse mag and install the PMAG, install the upright oil filter adaptor, and the oil/air separator. Lots of things basically.


Working on a double for the air/oil separator. Not sure if im going to install this on the firewall or on the engine mount with adel clamps. Need the engine on the hoist to look at it and decide.

For now I made a rivet pattern for a doubler, something to do while I wait.
