OS 160FX and pump question

[rcaerobob at cox.net]

All three of my setups are drilled in the backplate between those webs on the flat part.  Works just fine.  Always remove the excess threads that will protrude beyond the hole, or else there will be BIG TIME ugly things happen with various metal parts bashing into each other.

Easier to Dremel off that stuff, and clean it up.
Oh - has to be removed from engine to do safely or even BIGGER, UGLIER things will happen.

> Ok, maybe I'm missing something obvious here. But, I have an OS 160 FX and a Perry V30 pressure type pump. Where in the heck do you tap this thing for pressure? There's usually a boss in the center of the back plate, or the back plate is smooth, or something. This engine has raised egdes that wouldn't allow for very easy drilling and tapping.
