Dave thanks for the info. I won't need to use the other ring of holes on my C box flange. If I ever do, I will remember that one is metric and the other SAE. I would have thought the 1/4" one was also metric.
Do not archive

On your 582 the B or C or E box will have 2 sets of holes
one is 1/4 " and early ones were tapped to 1/4 UNF
other is a M8 and is tapped on all gear box hubs.

Hi Pat,
I just talked to Dick Maddox on the phone and I guess there are some
differences in prop flanges on the Rotax engines. My Prop flange doesn't
have threaded holes nor did my first R-912. There are essentially three
hole patterns, the 8 mm inner patern then progressively larger holes
presumably for the bushed bolts Dick mentioned on his original Warp prop.
To clarify, I was supplied with 9 mm bolts with castle nuts for the original
installation. These were for a slip fit through the prop hub and engine
flange with nut fasteners. I found that these bolts were a bit short so
shopped for longer bolts. I tried some 5/16" bolts I had and found that
they were a bit tighter in the through holes and used them. The threads
were not an issue except between bolt and nut.
I too find it curious that the larger bolts have a smaller diameter than the
smaller bolts, but a simple digital measurement with bolts on hand
re-conirmed this.
