[NSRCA-discussion] Mounting Dimension - Hyde "Type C"

[Bob Pastorello]

SUPER infor, and much appreciated!  Clearly, Merle is trying to offer flexibility in mount decisions and applications, and that's a good thing.  Thanks, Lance!

  These type C's are really new (the Mk III's anyway).  I would assume Merle's dimensions have not really changed.  Here's some info I got from Merle directly that others may find interesting.  I sure did:

  Hi Lance,

  I don't have any pictures.  The new "C" MKIII mount (isolator) looks the same as the earlier ones.  Now I am using rectangular 1/4" x 1/2" aluminum beams oriented/attached flat on the mount.  This makes the mount now usable with 18 pattern engines, including the OS160 which is a wide crankcase engine.

  Each beam has 6 drilled and tapped 6-32 holes - permitting a wide application range.  Beams positioned flat are even stronger.  Overall length from firewall to thrust washer is 6 3/8" for all YS, 3M, WEB, OS140, OS160, and OS120-200 4 strokes.  Use of different beam bolt patterns even permits 6 1/4" FW to TW for many engines!!
