Marshal is a member on here. I also got my Tiernay Turbine from him. Real nice guy. He lives about 2 hours north of me and i have been meaning to try and meet him. I think it would be really cool to have an amateur turbine owners group that meet up occasionally.
That GTP70 looks like a fun turbine. Can't wait to see it powering something.

Hi Grant, I didn't know he was on this site. I'll let him know that I'm on here as well. Yes nice guy here just sent me parts diagrams for the starter and engine today i almost have a full technical manual. Yep it will be a fun turbine once she up and running.
Cheers, Mark..

Any of you guys think this would be a good place to fit the EGT probe?. Attachments:

Hi Mark
I think closer to the "mean" flow area , maybe an inch in from the wall so that it won't be masked by the turb hub .
Cheers John

Hi Mark, I have NOS EGT senders for the GTP70 (I think) . The location you propose looks to be close to the original (there should be a mount location ) . Did the engine I sent you not have an EGT? or was it failed? in any case get in touch and I will send you a new one Gratis. Marshal
