|
Here is a pic of a 1978 airbox installed in a 03 AG5B. Adapting the support for the throttle wasn't a cake-walk, but, it isn't that much work. The fuel line fitting (coming out of the fuselage) had to be changed for a 90 degree to clear the airbox. The stainless steel line from the top 'almost fit' the bottom (see in photo). The fuel line from the primer to the mech fuel pump had to be installed backwards; now the fuel flows from the engine to the tanks. The next item to fix is the carb heat. I'll need to cut the cable. This particular plane has a lot of junk in the area behind cyl #3. So, I need to find a way around it for the carb intake duct. More to come.
PS, I tried sending the pic through TeamGrumman-List but I guess it didn't go through. SOOOOO.
If you want a pic, ask
