Torque values for mounting the Rotax.

[Dwillows]

I'm building an RV12iS and ready to torque the engine suspension frame to the firewall. I've got the Rotax Heavy Maintenance Manual online and found the numbers for mounting the frame to the engine (44 ft.lb) but don't see anywhere the numbers for mounting the frame to the firewall. Anybody been there recently?

I think you’re looking for the torque from section 5. Remember to check the fastener drag as your torquing lock nuts. They’re AN6 bolts so it will be about 200 in/lbs.

Aaah yes, the Van’s torque list, rather than the Rotax specs! Thanks v much!!
