Default RE: Dave Patrick super cub

Here's some more!

The only problem that I had, and was wondering if anyone had the same problem was that the cown pre-drilled mounting holes were too far back and when I first measured to mount the engine, the distance that I had from the firewall to the front of the thrust washer was 6 5/8 in. instead of the 6 1/8 as per the instructions. If I would have used the original holes I would have had to use the mounting blocks and I didn't want to do that. So I drilled some new holes and then got my proper clearance. This is something that I have to tell Dave 'cause the cowl was definetly drilled wrong! Other than that so far, it's been without a hitch!
