Hi all!!! This is my first post I've been following and reading past posts and I need some help. I'm trying to get my first Pitts flying!!!
I have a Softie 240 Seat pack and 240 back pack. I would like opinions on which chute to use, the seat pack weights 18lbs the back pack 15lbs. I'm leaning towards the back any suggestions.
I am about to put REM37BY plugs in my 360 angle valve engine is there an optimum gap
Should I cut the pulley off of the back of the starter flywheel I have a B&C alternator and wont be using the pulley. I have a hollow crank and lightening holes in the flange, I'm switching to a Cato 3 blade prop. If I do cut the pulley off should I have it cut flush with the back of the gear ring and round of the edge of the cut??? Balance??
If I cut the pulley off should I refit the engine baffle to force all the air past the cylinders
I've been reading posts for months its been very helpful, Im trying to get all the final details taken care of before I put the wings on.
THANKS
