Just wanted to post a link to YouTube showing the first run of my engine-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QVBRCKk5_EWilliam Wynne helped me get it up and running. A lot of work had to be done tothe engine as we rebuilt it, but it ran great. 2000 rpm for 30 minutes and noleak was found after shutdown.Many thanks to William. Also a big thanks to Dan Weseman for helping with the fifthbearng adjustment. I encourage you to look at the Corvair as your flightengine. Corvair College 32 in Texas is coming up soon. So think about attending.You will be glad you did!--------Semper Fi,Terry HandAthens, GARead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/imag ... ______Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2014 12:23:29 +0000 (UTC)
