Prop Pitch Question by
Eugene Wendland
Hi All
I fly a Pazmany Pl-2 (see link below for pictures) that had a power upgrade
from an 125 h.p. O-290 to a 160 h.p. O-320. I fly behind a McCauley Metal
prop. After the engine change, I had the prop repitched from a 7063 to a

3.8 liter V6 Ford PSRU model year compatibility by
James W Brackett
I am currently running a 1986 v6 with a Northwest Aero PSRU.
I was wondering when or if Ford changed the bolt hole pattern
on bell housing. I have a 2001 mustang with the 3.8 and would
like to maybe step up to fuel injection and the balanced intake.

How does a Maule tester work? by

I have heard folks talk about a Maule fabric tester, but I have never
seen one in action. Apparently it puts a set amount of pressure
against fabric and if the rod goes thru, then the fabric fails.
Can someone please describe the action - especially, how does the
device keep the fabric from being...

Peltor headset wiring by

I recently acquired a couple of Peltor 8003 headsets secondhand. They
have two stereo jacks. These are molded on so I cannot open them up to

I took the quarter-inch to be stereo, but no: I measured some 290 ohms
from tip to ground, and nothing between ring and ground....
