I need to get the motor box in the correct location so the prop shaft lines up with the cowl.
I can always try calling Sig.
Get the mounting arrangement for the Saito twin. Determine the relationship from that mounting to the prop centerline. Work backwards to locate the center for your motor box. Drill, mount, fly.
