The bracket is installed over a water passage to provide heat transfer. Auto supply fiber gasket paper and some gasket seal is fine for reinstallation. It is better to drain some coolant and remove the 2 bolts and the plate so that you can address it on the workbench. If you start cutting...
Need to fabricate complete rudder and shaft for a '69 E30. Hoping someone has a dimensional sketch. Have seen older thread for an E32 but don't know how much bigger that one is.
Thanks
Tom,
Whatever you have will be appreciated. I talked to Foss and they do not have a mold so I think I will repost asking specifically for dimensional drawings. I see older thread about a 32' with a sketch so maybe someone has built one for a 30'.
Yes there seems to be "plenty" of space, and no one has had a bad word about the engine. Still looking at transmissions possibilities if anyone has any leads on something suitable?
I have access to a Kubota 3 Cylinder 20 HP Diesel which seems to be a popular replacement for Atomic 4's.
Does anyone have experience with installing one?
The critical dimensions seem acceptable and the added 8HP over the existing Albin may be welcome.
Comments appreciated.
