## Discrepancy

FOUND SEVERE CORROSION ON THE ENGINE MOUNT, BELOW THE ENGINE SUPERCHARGER, ON THE RIGHT ENGINE.  THE ENGINE MOUNT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED, WITH A FISHMOUTH REINFORCEMENT, FOR PRESUMABLY THE SAME PROBLEM.  THE LEFT ENGINE MOUNT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM BUT IS NOT AS SEVERE.  CORROSION AND RUST HAVE PENETRATED THE REPAIR.  THE ENGINE MOUNT IS AGAIN REPAIRED BUT BY REPLACEMENT OF ENTIRE TUBE SECTIONS.  MOST INSTALLATIONS OF THIS TYPE HAVE A HEAT SHIELD INSTALLED.
