<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Troy,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you for your reply. All I can say is
things have changed since I've flown pattern. The last pattern plane I had
was a T2A MKII and it was one of the best pattern planes I ever had. So
that gives you a idea how long I've been out of it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Terry Brox let me fly his DZ powered Patriot and I
have to say the power is addicting. I guess I'm going to have to give his
plane a close inspection when I see him again.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'll tell Todd HI for you. He is really
pleased with his new Defiant. I got to fly it last Sunday and I can say he
should be competitive. He is really excited to see how he does this year
and rightfully so. Other than a sensitive elevator the airplane
flies extremely well and when he gets the elevator worked out it should be
outstanding. He's going make up a kit for me and I'll be flying one
also.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks again,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Clay,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I can tell you what works for me...everybody has
opinions...but here is what I do...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1/8" aircraft ply firewall</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hyde AR or AR (A) mount</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Central Hobbies Header-no brace</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hatori 693 pipe</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>another good exhaust setup is the CD Products
available from Lamar Blair.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you need to use a Hyde ARI mount (nose ring
incorporated mount) you need a much thicker firewall....like 1/4" aircraft
ply...The Fuse mounted nose ring setup is much lighter in my mind.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The DZ can shake a little more at idle especially
if it is rich....</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Terry Brox is out they with you guys...He is
running a DZ I think..He can help you get it setup...If have problems email me
offlist and I'll help out.....</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Personal Note: Say hey to Todd, how is his new
plane flying?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello Everyone,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been away from pattern from sometime now
and hopefully I can get started again next year.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I sure could use some advise about motor mounts
& exhaust systems for the YS DZ. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also, as far as construction is concerned, is
there anything that any of you would advise me about the firewall
area? In other words would it be much different than installing a 140L or a
large two stroker?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for your input,</FONT></DIV>
