  1. Thanks for the pictures. My airplane had a similar bracket but it was on the other side. The bracket broke, was replaced, and broke again. I think the problem is that the inner cowl (Dog House) moves with the engine and the Lower / front cowl does not. It seems inappropriate to connect somethin rigid from the moving engine to the fixed cowl. Your bracket is twisted and looks like it would flex in the direction that the engine shakes. My bracket was such that it cracked after not many hours. I did not take pictures of the old bracket. Ill try to take a picture of the new bracket, not that it is correct. -Charlie
  2. The 64 parts manual has the same part. I grabbed the 65 drawing from another post. dog house baffle 64.pdf
  3. My 1964 M20E has an incorrect front baffle support. Can some one send be a photo of the part installed on their airplane. In particular, I cannot tell where that aft end of the support mounts. the part is #8 in this picture. I wonder if the part was removed when the generator was replaced with an alternator. Thank you
  4. I have two switches, Nav and anti collision( strobe or rotating beacon) I removed both my old Strobe ( on top) and rotating beacon(on the belly) when I added my Orion 650/500. I think the Strobe and rotating beacon were on the same circuit before. New wires were run to the wing tips. The new wires were pulled through the wing by the old wires.
  5. I installed Whelen OR65001R, OR6501G, Position / Anti-Collision lights and a OR5001V Tail position / Anti Collision light on my M20E. Removed a rotating Beacon on the top and a strobe from the bottom. I think that is where my 39 KTAS came from. Very happy with the results. My mechanic installed them and was able to attach the new wires to the old wires and pull the new wire through the wing into the cabin. The lights come with an STC for the make and model. Also filled a 337. One comment, the anti collision strobe, unlike a flash strobe is a significant duration and the lights draw 3 amp each when they are on. One of my radios can hear this as alternator noise.
  6. Just installed shoulder harness in my 64 M20E last fall. Purchased the kits from Alpha Aviation. The clamp kit was $35. for both sides. Comes with all the bolts, washers and spacer so that it all fits. Was a pain to install. There was no good place to get the clamp under the aluminum and around the tube. My widows survived but needed some re-sealing when I was done. What ever bracket you use, my understanding is that the mount needs to be engineered or tested to hold 800lb. It can deform but not fail. The aircraft structure is allowed to fail at that load so do not test it on your aircraft. Call Alpha, they have lots of information.
  7. I am looking for an paramount master cylinder so that I can make (owner supplied part) the brass internal check valve with a new o-ring. A non serviceable cylinder would be great. I will likely need to destroy the part to copy it.
  8. Looking for a set of Paramount Master Cylinders. Any condition.
