<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm currently running ho'made Hyde mounts. I
used to run (4) Lord mounts on an oversized back-plate and no nose ring on my 60
sized stuff--and liked them very much. Very clean. Does anyone still
make them for the bigger stuff? I haven't looked into it lately.
Didn't Sullivan buy the rights? CRS disease. In a couple of cases
when we first got in to soft mounting, I was able to do a straight addition of
Lord mounts to the back of my regular, hard mount and re-drill and tap new
engine mount holes further back in the mount. Worked fine if you had the
engine originally mounted on the front of the mount. I think some guys
used (3) Lord mounts with a nose ring and (4) without. The nice thing
about those is there isn't ever a direct connection to the airframe. Man, I DO
need to look in to these again!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=788353020-06082004><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2> Which Hyde mount should I use, and do you know
where I can order a Mueller header? At this point I am inclined to go with a
OS 160 because I can buy the engine, pipe, header and half the mount for the
same money as an OS 140. I think the weight penalty will be 4 - 6 oz but with
the power loading I don't think it will matter al that much. What do you
think?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P>Yes, in the pattern community Hyde mounts could be considered the best
option. My personal recommendation is: do NOT hard mount the
engine. There are other options there, but the Hyde
mount could be the best option for your particular
situation. Note: I am not sponsored by Mr. Hyde.</P>
