Engine in place, ready for mounting.
Marking bolt holes in rails.
Engine in place. Note that the top of bulkhead 2
is still in place.
Mounting Engine
Your engine should be in its 5 inch mounts,
and have some sort of throttle assembly
installed. We like the simple bell crank.
Remove the carb and header, if installed.
Slip the engine between the rails until the
carb is centered in the slot in the right rail.
Place a 1/8 ply scrap under the engine as a
spacer. The engine can be no closer than
1/8 inch to the bottom.
Aim the engine towards the hole in
bulkhead 3.
Use a ¼ inch rod or long bolt to align the
engine to the hull.
Push the rod from the bottom, through the
slot and hole in bulkhead 3, and into the
collet.
This will allow you to mark the two rear
mounting holes in the rails.
We like to use a stub pencil, and needle
nose pliers for marking the holes.
Remove the engine and drill the two holes
with your right angle drill.
Make sure the holes are slightly larger than
the bolts, as we will be sealing these holes
later.
Put the engine back in, and loosely bolt the
rear in place.
Push your ¼ inch rod back up through into
the collet.
Mark the front holes.
Remove the engine and drill the two front
mounting holes.
