House bound by weather today, so I have been working on web pages describing
the mounting of the MZ 34. I opened up a MZ 34 section on the index page
and have the first three pages up. It may be of interest on a slow day.

The engine index page:

The engine mount:

The exhaust system:

Mods to the reed valve and carburetor adapter:

Richard,

In my case it is important to look at the option. The numbers look good,
but until it gets into the air I won't really know. Sometimes what is
important is not the end result, but the path followed. If it fails
miserably, I will remount the Victor 1+.

Thank you for the kind words.

I have updated the FireFly homepage to include some description of the MZ
34. It can be viewed at:

Jack,

As you know, you will likely see a measurable speed increase even with less power by moving the engine below the wing. When I was giving instruction in a big wing Challenger I was continually amazed at how much faster it is than Kolbs with equivalent power. Getting the engine behind the fuselage should make a big difference in drag and therefore fuel economy. Keep us posted on this very interesting project.
