<div>The DLE 55 fit but the muffler was the problem. With a wraparound Pitts muffler it would need to be cut into the cheeks of the cowl. The DLE 30 fits fine with only cooling vents cut in. I will throw a tape on the cowl next time I am working and let you know.</div><div></div><div>I am using 1/2 robart strait struts. It will be the same set-up as retracts but fixed. The 1/4 wire should provide the give needed if i hit hard. I am working on a collapsible gear that will fold on hard landings in the rough if one had a dead stick.</div><div></div><div>This is a really nice kit.</div><div></div><div>TB</div>
