you find me a dome type cap for a 0-300-D, with the 6 bolt small diameter flange I'll use it.blueldr wrote:A reeallyfine looking restoration. Congratulations. Ugliest goddamn spinner I've ever seen on a C=170. A skull cap type would look a hellova lot better. (IMNSHO!)
That's good news! (The last I'd heard there was no hope for an STC. Bartone didn't have one and Benham's paperwork was incomplete.)T. C.

That's true and it fit the big flanged 8 bolt hub of the prop. the 0-300-D has a small hub and a 6 bolt flange. the dome from a 0-300-A is too big by about 1/2" all around.blueldr wrote:The skull cap dome that I had did not have anything other than a sheet metal bracket running between two prop bolts with a plate nut for a center screw through the dome.
the small domed cap is on order, Thanks for the link. Learn some thing every day.. The one I have is 6.250" if any one needs it. comes with bracket. make offer.n2582d wrote:I agree with Dick's assessment. Beautiful restoration, ugly spinner. Aircraft Spruce has 5" domes.
