moose cabin heat system

Post by Fred Messinger \(fredm\) » Sat Feb 18, 2012 10:51 am

Also along the lines of Bob's question. Are folks using one or two
heat muffs for cabin heat?

Scott, How do I see your pics that Bob refers too. I went to Files and
searched for M14P and Air System. No luck.

Feeling kinda stupid,
Fred

Hi Scott,
thanks for the answer on the elevator. I have another question for
you...did you fabricate the exhaust pipes for your engine? I saw were
you did fab your carb heat, your engine mount, etc., but did not see the
exhaust fab? Also did you keep the jig for the mount and would you be
interested in making another mount and selling it to me or giving me the
dimensions of mount and jig so I could do it myself? (also the oil
tank). I have a Miller 250 MIG and a friend is a welder (cert). I see
that you did yours with a TIG would the MIG make that much difference? I
would have my welder friend with me and check my work. Also I will get
you new photos that I keep forgeting about.
Thanks Scott.

-> Bob, sounds like you are on the right track. I did not do this
-> change; I trimmed the vertical doublers and added channels, which was
another option.
-> Trimming the V on the elevator is better though. It sounds like you
-> have the newer doublers so I would just extend that line down the
-> elevator notch. I am pretty sure if it is 1/2 inch back all along
-> the V it will be more than enough.
->
-> The problem was caused (I believe) by the upgraded spar doublers on
-> the back of the Moose horizontal stab spar moving the hinges back
-> which put the elevator farther aft than the original SR's.

Fred, the standard YAK exhaust has one heat muff but you can get them for
both sides. The exhaust systems that the Kimball's sell can come with two
also. I am starting with one and will see how it works out.

The pictures Bob was referring to are on my website www.goflyamoose.com
Follow the link to the picture gallery and you will find them. I will
eventually upload some more of my pictures to this archive also, it is just
slower than loading them to my own site so haven't done it yet.
