Posted: Sun Sep 06, 2009 6:43 pm Post subject: Vetterman Exhaust Hangars |
|
|
Does any one have some photos of how the Vetterman exhaust hangars fit on a RV-7 IO-360 standard 4-pipe installation? The instructions seem to indicate that you can either attach the hangars to the rear of the sump or to the engine mount. It sounds like you're supposed to keep the clamps on the exhaust as far aft as possible. If you do that, it doesn't apper that the hangar rods are long enough if you want to hook them to the sump? What have othesr done here?
Thanks for any help.

Do not attach them to the engine mount. They need to be attached to the engine, the exhaust has to move with the engine, I don't have pictures available but I'm sure someone does.

I have the 4-into-4 Vetterman exhaust on my RV-8. The instructions stated to mount the hangers to the engine mount. Here are some pictures of my installation. There might be more options on the RV-7, don't know.

Let us know what Larry has to say. Maybe post some pictures when you've figured it out...

Quote: | Thanks Matt. Beautiful installation. The mount on the 7 is quite a bit different than the 8 by the looks of things but the concept of the hangars is the same. I'm going to give Larry a call today to see what he recommends. I'm probably just missing something but I'm also concerned that the hangar is going to interfer with the location of the scat tube for the heat muff. I didn't see where you had your heat muff installed yet. On my setup, the instructions say to put it over tubes 1&3 (it's a double heat muff) as far aft next to the hangar bracket as you can. Since it's a double muff, you can't rotate it on the pipe, and the heat outlet would be right under one of the hangar rods. I'm sure Larry has an answer - I can't be the first.
Thanks again.
