Dale,

Yes, still have the original oil return low on the rear iron. But-- Is there enough oil supply at the pressure port to supply the PSRU with oil? I think on Tracy's 20b he supplies the PSRU from the turbo oil supply by the CAS. (based on some pictures, not verified) Tracy?

I think I understand what Bruce did. It appears as if he has cut off or milled off the entire mount location. What is left is the material that covers the dowel area and the remainder of the material for the mount pad.

Regards,

Bill
