Hey Guys,

Yes, I cowled in the engine while making sure I had plenty of room to install and remove the engine. The real key seems to be inhow large you make the nose plate hole. On mine I made the hole as large as possible thus allowing the engine a greater angle to slip into the engine bay.

PS-I also considered engine cooling when I opened up the engine bay as much as I did. I suppose I could have tightened it up a bit, but this way I have ample room to access everything in the engine bay and still have an enclosed nose.
