I'm finally putting the engine back on our RV-8, and I'm looking for some pictures of exhaust hangers for IO-360-A engines on RV-8. When I built mine originally, I followed Larry Vetterman's instructions at the time, which were to hang the exhaust from the engine mount. Now that I am reinstalling the engine, I'd like to move to his later guidance and hang the exhaust from the back of the oil sump. The problem is that I can't find a clear shot to do that on the left side. An engine mount tube is in the way, as is my heat muff on the pipe from #4. I'm hoping that pictures of someone else's installation will give me a hint on a good way to sort this out.
The down time has been a lot longer than I had hoped, largely due to too much time on the road. I'll post all the details on the resolution of my engine issue after I get flying again.
