• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

so we mounted the engine today. the starter was not attached and the hardware for it was not in the crate. if I go to ACS (or elsewhere), there is some awful looking price tags for Lycoming hardware, even something as simple as a nut. the worst offense is this bolt:

http://www.skygeek.com/textron-lycoming-st122-2-bolt.html, 3,400 bucks (which obviously I don't need but...).

do I really have to suffer thru these prices or is it ok just to buy some grade 8 cad plated nuts and bolts?
