Cy:

I didn't mean to discount your response!  I appreciate the fact that you
would even take the time to respond to my inquiry!  I have great respect for
your experience, and I look forward to your columns in the EAA publications
every month.  I was just relating to you what the Hartzell folks had told
me.  Even though I have quite a bit of experience in building hot-rod car
and boat engines, I have never built or even personally maintained an
airplane motor, so I am on the low end of the learning curve here.  Every
bit of input I get on this issue has value to me.

I hope I get to meet you at AirVenture this year!
