 Posted: Tue Mar 18, 2008 10:33 am Post subject: Firewall angle |
 |
|
I have a set of 701 plans that I plan to start construction on
shortly. I note that the firewall is leaned back at an angle of 87
degrees from the horizontal. My question is how many Zenith models
share this exact same angulation. Probably the 801. How about the
601 and 640? The reason I need to know is that I am developing a
fixture to build engine mounts for the new RotaMax rotary engines
to be introduced at Sun N Fun. Thanks, Jerry

Jerry,
The 601XL firewall is set at 77 degrees, or 13 degrees laid back from vertical.
Good luck,

Just remember that the cabin floor on the XL slopes up about 3 degrees. So
the angle of the firewall to the longeron is not the same as the angle of
the firewall to the cabin floor. The 06/03 version of 6-B-15 showed the 3
degrees explicitly in the diagram in the upper right corner (where 77
degrees is shown from the longeron). But in the 07/05 version the "3
degrees" notation has disappeared - maybe because it was an approximation?
