Aeromarine Collet for CMB 1.01/Alpha 27

[Blackout]

What's the thread size on a CMB 1.01? I hear the CMB 1.01 and CMB Alpha 27cc take the same collet. I want to order a Aeromarine collet for my CMB Alpha, but Aeromarine lists no thread size for their CMB 1.01 collet.

Makes sense? I'm confused as I reread it....

Thanks for any input on CMB Alpha collets!

I'm going to go square drive by the way.

Mark Grim told me the 1.01 would fit, but I just wanted to confirm. I was kinda disappointed that Aeromarine does not put thread sizes on their website for their collets....

 

[ALLAN YUEN]

I can confirm that the 1.01 & Alpha are the same thread size.

What strut/stub/bushing set up are you using for the square drive?

Craig,

I had Aeromarine make new collets that will fit the Alpha. Email me at [email protected] or call 317-462-9978 to order.

I'm building a Zippkit Envy which has a center ski. I will be using their Z-strut so there is no room for a flex ferrule. I will need to have a square drive cable made to my exact length and then run a "shaft saver" with thrust bearing on the shaft in the engine bay to keep the shaft from falling out. Obviously I will run a thrust bearing at the Z-strut as well. And most likely TIG weld some added support to the Z-strut as it will be subject to forces that it was not originally designed for.
