Hi Olympiadesign,
I have a CNC router and am busy working with a couple of other MS guys to cut instrument panels. I have some Mooney templates, as well as all the templates for many instruments, and an Autocad guy to update the drawings. Cutting is the easy part, the work is all in the drawings and getting the instruments to fit. Send me an email, and we can discuss further. supercub180@gmail.com
I can work with you for a very nominal charge, my goal is to build up a library to the point that I can offer a refined service. (Its not a product, you and your IA need to control the design process, installation and signoff).

Don,
Great to know. I will be in touch once we start the process. Any chance you already have the spec or can cut me a blank for the left side of a M20E We can then mark it up where the cuts need to be made and send it back to you.
Cheers,
Dimitri

Hi Andy, where are you based, I learned to fly at FALA and FAGC. I could do a an EDM700 4C for USD2200 plus shipping. And I have another harness and probes that I need to send to Jhb which will reduce the shipping. I used Fedex last time, was quite expensive ($250?) if I remember correctly. Are you up to speed with processing the import paperwork and paying VAT? Don

Hi Buster, I have several new and used JPI engine monitors, will take your GTX327 in trade. What have you got installed for engine and fuel flow monitoring, Don

Hi Piotre,
Are you considering a fresh install or an upgrade? Its the sort of thing you should install during an annual when the engine cowls are off anyway. The big variables are how easy is it to mount a 2" instrument in your panel, and how easy is it to pull the bundle of cables through the firewall. Can you send some pictures?
If you can help your installer, you can do a lot of the work yourself and keep the costs down. Overall, it could be anywhere from 10-20 hours.
If you are installing fuel flow, it helps to get remade fuel pipes (2) to replace the one going to the carb at present.
Have you got an F model? I'd recommend an EDM700, with 4EGT/CHT, OAT, Oil T and fuel flow. Interface to a GPS if at all possible.

Hi Don,
thank you for your quick answer. I'm considering a fresh install. I have a 1965 E currently in escrow and hope to have it in my hands late this week. The annual is due in July, so I would probably look to do something at that point. The plane currently has a single probe egt system installed, but I don't have access to it yet to take pictures. I'll circle back when the plane is in my hands.
Thanks again,
piotrek
