    electric motor shaft coupling

    For the engineering types among us: I'm thinking of experimenting with an electric drive, but don't want to pull my current engine (A4 in working order). Thinking of a belt drive coupling to the shaft aft of the A4. Anyone know where to get a collar thingy that will put a belt pulley on the...

    Flexible Shaft Coupling?

    Our E38 got a new Universal M-40B diesel last year after biological growth clogged the anti-siphon hose and allowed salt water to fill the engine. (BTW, be sure your insurance covers biological growth-related catastrophies. Ours didn't! :mad:) After installing the new diesel, replacing the...

    E-27 shaft coupling

    PYI Flexible Coupling & Prop Overhang?

    I was just about ready to install a PYI 910001 Flexible Coupling on the M-25 in our E32-3 and started reading the posts on this site. I am just not sure about sliding the shaft back another 1.28 inches. I would still have enough room to repack the stuffing box but having the prop back furthur...
