KR> RE: engine mount fasteners
I am about to order bolts to fasten my engine mount to firewall and wanted to double check this, I need 4.5 in long X 3/8 dia. bolts the AN equivalent is, AN6-43 right? I have temporarily installed it with ordinary grade 8's, I know they would hold, but I think "AN" is "THE" right way and they aren't that much more. Oh I have also been wondering anyone know how much a wing (outer) weighs? I have 9.8 gal tank, aileron w/balance, attach fittings, and nav lights & wiring, weight is 49 lbs. Thanks, Mike
