Hardly necessary.
I have found very nice motel rooms near the freeway in Mt. Vernon for
$32/night.Clean as a whistle and free coffee in the morning. Several
to choose from, no reservations necessary.

Has anyone booked a room and would like someone to share the room and expenses.
I plan to be there on thursday and leave on Sunday and would like to share the
expense of a room. If you would like to share a room and have not booked it yet
let me know and I'll book one.

Not a KR but still worth a ticket for a good cause.

Somewhere I found a set of plans and how to for making a torque measuring
device using a VW wheel as the back of the motor mount and a 6', 2"x4"
placed on a scale so that as the engine turned up the RPM's you could read
the torque in foot pounds at any RPM and the guy used a 2"x4" for a prop so

I contacted a local KR builder / flyer to see if he was going to make it to the
Gathering this year only to find out that he was having cylinder trouble and
waiting on parts for his Jabiru 3300. That's all I know, I did not ask what
caused the problem. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the

Here's my understanding of it.
If you imagine a 2ft diam pulley attached to your engine,with a 110lb weight
hung on a rope wound around the pulley, then the engine will lift the weight at
the rated max torque rpm.
Example. If an engine is rated are 110 lbft at 2500revs

Has no one elswhere in the world had any Jabiru engine failures? Down under

Glenn,
The 2180 VW is said to produce 76HP at 3600 RPM, so, it would produce 110.88
"whatever torques are". This is without respect to prop.
Does anyone know what the rated HP at RPM, is of the Corvair?

The formula for HP is Torque x RPM/5252. By substitution that makes

Hi All
Thanks for all your suggestions.
We have come to the conclusion that the only way to get this one through is
with raw data.
Engineers like numbers and no amount of hearsay evidence is likely to sway
them.
So has anyone out there got any numbers that will back up the case for using

The basic floor is 3/32" Birch or Mahogany with a 1/4" Birch layer on top from
the firewall to the back side of the "B" stringer. The plans call for it to
stop dead there but I gave it a 30 degree taper to blend it into the basic
