Default OVERHAULIN' a DD

This plane had a K&B 6.5 RIRE on it last year. It was a good buy off the RCU auction for $65, talk about fast for cheap. I decided to get a Nelson .40 and use this plane to get aquainted with the engine out at the hay field. The Nelson is about 1/16" wider at the mount beams and the spinner is smaller than what I used on the K&B, so the whole front end of this plane needs to be reworked, new cowl, etc.
