Bill/Duane,
I was just wondering if I could cowl the engine real closely with the top block, or if I should open it up more like Bill did. Upon further reflection, I realized I will have to open it up or I'll never get the engine in or out unless I made the top block removable. And I don't think there's near enough wood available into which to anchor any screws except at the very back.
Cheers,
Richard
I guess I'm not really following. With the open engine compartment like Ed did, everything is very acceptable. I think Bill is cowling in the entire engine.
Whatever you do, the top line should follow the line of the spinner, and the nose should have this slender appearance. Glad to see you're making progress.
Duane
