<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:

about what I wanted to do - I'm thinking of making it a little more
adjustable, for use down the road though. I think I'm going to use maple
blocks hold the engine, and bolt the blocks to a maple plate. That way, I can
remove the blocks, and replace them with a set drilled for a different engine.</span></font></p>

style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>As for the Mintor 170 test stand, I
built on out of stuff I had in the garage. I used 5/8 x 8 particle board,
2x2 pine, Hangar 9 aluminum engine mount, and a Dave Brown soft pipe
mount. I took a piece of 5/8 particle board and cut it at approx 30
inch and used that for the base. I then cut a 3 more pieces of 5/8 at
approx 6 inches. I glued and screwed one of the 5/8 pieces on the end
like a firewall, the other two 6 inch pieces were used to tie the fire
wall back into the base. I mounted the engine mount so that the header
would clear. With the pipe on the motor I measured how high it was from
the base and cut a piece of 2x2 to fit with a DB soft mount mounted on
top. For a throttle control just used 2-56 rod and ran it through a small
hole in the fire wall. There was enough friction to keep the throttle
from moving. When all the glue was dry, I used drywall screws and screwed
it down to a table. Worked great and it only took about 40 min to build. </span></font></p>
