Front Spinner Bulkhead for Warp Drive Propellers
All of our cowlings are based on using the Vans FP-13 spinner. If you are using this spinner with a Warp Drive propeller on a Corvair,
you will need this Front Spinner Bulkhead/Crushplate combination, now flying on more than three dozen aircraft and proven over five years
of service. Please note that aircraft utilizing wood props do not need this part.
The $149 price includes shipping in the U.S. International S&H, including Canada, will be billed
separately. I accept payment by check or money order in U.S. dollars payable
to William Wynne, 5000-18 HWY 17 #247, Orange Park, FL 32003, or credit cards via PayPal by clicking below:
Please print, complete and return a Liability Statement with all orders. These are available for printing at the Liability Statement Page.
Thank you for your order. Your support makes possible further research and development on the Corvair.
Spinner Bulkhead/Crushplate Installation Instructions
Thank you for buying a Spinner Bulkhead/Crushplate. Your purchase makes possible my further research and development on the Corvair. In this way, you’re investing in the future development and perfection of your chosen motor.
These notes are supplementary to my most current Conversion Manual. This Spinner Bulkhead/Crushplate is developed as part of the system that we use to convert aircraft motors. This system is outlined in the Conversion Manual. The parts alone, without the information contained in the Manual, will not allow you to develop as reliable an aircraft conversion. When I develop and market a part, it is fully flight tested, and designed to work in concert with the other parts in the conversion. I take into account the way that most people are capable of installing and operating the part. There’s a great deal of consideration that goes into these issues, and I urge you to utilize all the information in the Manual and the parts in the way that they are intended to be used. Of course, contact me at any time with any question you may have.
To be fair, everyone needs to understand that these are not certified parts, and it's not a certified motor. Experimental is not a misnomer; everything we do in this field is of increased risk. If anyone even suspects that they have a problem, E-MAIL or CALL ME. If you have never worked with torque wrenches and precision fasteners, get help from an A&P. Let's all remember to use our heads and not take unnecessary risks. I have gone to great lengths to make these components as reliable and easy to install as possible within the bounds of affordability. I have personally flown all of these parts, because I have a low opinion of people who market aircraft parts without flying the parts themselves. I believe that each and every part I sell is the best solution to its respective aspect of converting a Corvair engine. Take your time and do good work. The system is proven and will reward you with the same type of reliable flight performance we have always had.
