    This video is so poorly done. I don’t think this is going to help their cause. David

    Here’s a few photos of the area you’re interested in with the Vans baffling. You won’t be able to fit your air intake like I did unless you change the spinner and get more room. It would be much easier to do yours with just adapting the baffling.

    That would be easy to adapt to with keeping the stock intake of the E cowling. I used the Vans composite induction for the IO engine and adapted it to fit inside my cowling mod. For yours, simply leave your lower cowling on and use some tag board to fit the ramps to your lower cowling with the LASAR enclosure, leaving yourself at least a 3/4 inch gap between the ramp edge and the cowling. The cowl seal will take up this gap and keep the baffling from contacting the cowling during engine start and shutdown. Quite simple to do. David

    I’ve used the Vans BAF-360 kit for the 180 hp Mooney and the BAF-8-IO360 kit for the 200 hp Mooney. David

    It’s entirely possible and wasn’t too difficult to get a 337 for. I used VAN’s baffles and slightly modified them at cylinders 1 & 2 because they weren’t quite large enough to fit our cowls. David

    No issues that they admit.
  7. Sabremech
    So what’s the explanation now for the issues being observed?

    Here’s the panel stripped on the 93J model. David

    @mooniac58 donation made. Thank you, David

    On a 1993 J model I take care of, I stripped the paint off of the panel above the tailpipe. On this airplane it is stainless steel and the paint was burned and peeling. Nice and clean just being stainless. David

    Apparently my donation that allowed me additional photo space has expired. Will need to make a new donation to be able to post photos again. The spring looks like mine.

    Ok. That’s your view, although I don’t agree with it but respect it. So how about this, instead of yours and others anger, why don’t we channel that into a solution? How about we start a collection to help Jimmyred get a new panel cut? I’ll put $50 to Jummyred getting a new panel cut out. Since it’s a recent panel, getting a new one shouldn’t be too expensive. Any others willing to work towards a solution for Jimmyred?

    May I ask you the same question? Why are you so angered over someone else’s issue?
  14. Sabremech
    I’ll stop out and get a picture of mine today for comparison.
  15. Sabremech
    He’s made his point clear as mud. He has an issue with a shop. Did this shop harm your aircraft? If not, why are you so angry about something that didn’t affect you? None of this is going to fix his panel nor do I have a solution for him to make him happy. Do you have that solution other than venting?
  16. Sabremech
    Twenty posts starting at page 5 of this thread isn’t enough for you? Ok, continue to vent away.
  17. Sabremech
    Ok, and again not trying to be rude or insulting, but your point has been made and is clear. Thanks
  18. Sabremech
    I’m not trying to be rude or insulting, but what do you want? I think you made your point but by continuing to say the same thing, you’re losing your audience. What’s your end game here on Mooneyspace?
  19. Sabremech
    Amen. Fuel should have Never been an STC. It’s only a matter of time before someone becomes that smoking hole if this stuff is continued to be used and sold as a complete drop in replacement. I will not be that IA in that mess.
  20. Sabremech
    Just a question knowing what we know now, as an IA, would you sign the 337 for this STC? I don’t think I could if I was asked to. Thoughts?
  21. Sabremech
    What’s the earliest year C or E you have headliner plastic from? I’m looking to do something other than the stretched fabric headliner in my 56 M20. Thanks, David
  22. Sabremech
    It’s not the only route. I installed new fuel caps and flanges in the 66C I previously owned. My 337 with parts listed is on MS but I’ll look for it and post it here for your info in a day or two, David
  23. Sabremech
    @Jerry Pressley do you have any decent headliner plastic pieces from a C model? Thanks, David
  24. Sabremech
    Definitely post war. Nothing like that on the two P-51’s we had.
  25. Sabremech
    Did anyone else notice the 45% or 25,000 Mooney aircraft comment in George’s statements? Just a little bit off on the number of Mooney’s ever built.
