REFLECTOR: Engine install pictures

[Peter Braswell]

Reiff,
Certainly.  I actually was thinking about this after I sent out the email
... I should have told you all what I was installing.

Here are the particulars:
Plane: SERG
Engine: IO-360
Prop: MT w/Hydraulic governor.  The governor is on the COP side of the
plane.
Configuration: Conventional controls (center stick and engine controls on
the P side.

The factory suggested that we just run the control cables down the tunnel
which we've done.  I've got a pretty good idea of where the brackets mount
and what they look like, but I'm seeking pictures to verify.  The mystery
to me is the induction stuff.  According to the factory, there is no
supplied airbox, inlet or anything like that.  That's all up to the
builder.  They suggest using SKET (sp?) tubing, not SCAT tubing as the SCAT
tubing could collapse if the inset wires pull out of the liner.

Anything that you all think would help me get a handle on this would be
greatly appreciated!

All the best,
Peter
