## Discrepancy

WE WERE REMOVING THE QEC KIT FROM ENGINE 807539 THAT WAS INSTALLED ON A PORTABLE ENGINE STAND. WHEN IT CAME TIME TO REMOVE THE EXHAUST NOZZLE P/N 228-55030-11J WE FOUND 7 BOLTS (OUT OF 30) MISSING. FOUR OF THE BOLTS (P/N NAS6303U4 AND NAS 6303U9) WERE LOCATED NEXT TO EACH OTHER WITH TWO OF THEM IN THE 6 O'CLOCK DELTA BRACKET WHICH HOLDS THE EXHAUST FAIRING.THE OTHER 3 BOLTS WERE MISSING AT THE 7 AN 11 O'CLOCK POSITION.NO ACTION TAKEN.  THE EXHAUST HARDWARE REMAINING WAS DISCARDED AS IS STANDARD PRACTICE ON OUR QEC CHANGES.
