    Default Continental Engine Mount Instructions

    Series V Outback
    Looking for the instructions for mounting the Continental engine mount, hardware call-outs, torques, etc. I can't seem to find the engine section of my builders manual (probably stored in a "special" place). I am ready to hang the 0-200 on the airframe. Also, I need the section on mounting the engine to the mount. I have the instructions that are in the "official" Continental Engine Manual, but wanted to see the way Skystar/Kitfox mounts the engine. I have a box of hardware that I have collected that are labeled "engine", so I hope I have all the correct parts.
    Thanks!!

    That is it!!
    Don't want to assume anything, but I would "assume" that the drilled out AN3 washer is on the engine side of the stainless steel firewall.

    Your assumption would be correct!

    Another question: Just wanting to confirm that is “no” washer under the head of the bolt on the engine mount-2-fuselage attachment.

    That is correct, I didn't use any. Installing washers wouldn't be a problem if the bolts are long enough, but they are not needed.
