Listers,
Can anyone offer some words of wisdom, or better yet, some pictures, to show me how to install the exhaust hangers for a Vetterman exhaust on an IO-360 angle valve engine (RV-8)?
It is my understanding that the rear sump is much preferable to the engine mount as an attach point, so that the exhaust moves with the engine, not the airframe. Problem is, when trying to attach from the sump bolts to the exhaust, the engine mount cross bar is in the way, at least for one of the hangers.
Thanks for your help,
Jim Gray
