That stuffer in the eBay pile o parts looks like the early Mc5 stuffer Go Power made. Pop had one of Mac's very first Mc5's, and as soon as Go Power began spitting out those stuffers, they sent Pop one. I'll bet he spent three hours with Dremel and sandpaper getting that darn thing to fit into the engine. Of course, with the Mc5's limits, the stuffer did zero good. Pop shelved the engine, and as soon as Bob McCulloch called him to tell him that he was sending him a prototype of the new conversion kit to make the engine into an Mc6, he installed it. WOW! What a difference that made! He never got outrun by an AH-58 again. Ted
