 1. Locate the items to install the engine and muffler to the
fuselage. You will also need the fuselage assembly for this
section of the manual.
Note: Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal
fasteners to prevent them from vibrating loose.
 2. Use the four aluminum 3/8-inch (10mm) standoffs,
four 8-32 x 1-inch socket head cap screws and four #8
washers to attach the engine to the firewall. Use a 1/8-inch
hex wrench to tighten the screws. Do not pull the fuel lines
too tightly through the nylon tubing clamp or you might kink
the fuel tubing between the clamps and the fuel tank. Leave
the lower-left bolt loose so the ground can be attached in
step 5.
 3. Use side cutters to cut the tie-wrap holding the ignition
ground leads and fuel tubing together.
