What position should the prop be at when cylinder 6 is at TDC?
Been too long and can't find info.
Appreciate the help.

I don't have my WW manuals here. In fact I think they I left them at the airport this weekend. But I think that the position instruction he gives is with the #1 cylinder TDC that the prop is at 10 and 4.
I could be wrong and if nobody else chimes in with a more definitive answer I will look when I get a chance to go to the airport. It might be later this week though.
You might also ask over on the Corvair list.

Hi Gang,
I agree with Gig, according to Wynne's 601 manual, with the #1 cylinder at TDC the prop should be indexed at the 10:00 and 4:00 position. I just ran my corvair for the first time on Sat. 7/19. I'm still grinning at how much power the motor had at WOT. The motor turned 2850 RPM with a warp drive prop set to 8.5 degrees at the tips. Here is a link to a short collage of photos and video outlining the rebuild process I made and posted on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyAkFtrqO-0
Good luck with your corvair.
Ken

I'll be, who'd have thunk it? I guess the old memory isn't completely gone yet.
DO ARCHIVE . (Because I probably won't remember in a week or so when I need it.)
