Gday all,

I have just bought a 1/3 gp christen eagle and plan to use the zdz40 engine. I was hopeing that the engine would fit compleatly inside the cowl but looking at it now the plug/lead will protrude outside the bottom of the cowl. I was considering extending the prop shaft so the engine would sit further toward the firewall and thus reduce the plug sticking out the bottom. Has anyone got and comments/ suggestions about this?? also has anyone had any problems with cutting into the firewall for the carby??
thanks
