M14 Mount

[Bill Delcambre]

Can any of you guys who have your M14 MAM mounts get some dimensions for
me? Jim Kimball is offering a new manufacture, heavier mount ring, but
can't supply the whole mount until he knows the dimensions. Critical
are: distance from firewall to the face of the mount lugs and the
centerline of the crank (waterline). Crank center can be figured from
center of mount ring to bottom mount points. This will provide the
crank height above the mount points and thus the crank position,
relative to the firewall. The firewall mockup is no problem.

Kimball's new ring is just a bit heavier than the Russian unit. This is
good, but for me, the biggest advantage is not having to pull the ring
off of the engine (which is still in the sealed bag in the crate) to
have a mount made, not to mention the freight advantages.
