Whoa, don't get me in trouble with Tracy.


Kelly, it is I that has been cutting on a PSRU.  I've got some pics in my camera that I'll post tonight.

  I was referring to the engine mounting plate, not the PSRU plate.  I'm sure there is extra weight in his solid plate, but I don't have the knowledge to modify it.  Much of the engine mount plate is simply a shim.  That is what I was cutting away.

Kevin, what sort of bit did you use on the router to get the initial rut?  A 1" wide rut would seem excessive.  And how did you keep the bit from trying to ride up onto the top of the work rather than maintaining a constant depth? I'm working on wing ribs right now, but in a week or two I'll be doing exactly what you've done to my bellhousing.
