OK... here it is Friday Morning and I fitted the Saito 100 on last night.... after looking at it I decided to invert the engine for the best fit and the best alignment on the engine box. In doing so it opened up a hole new can of worms... to use the stock exhaust and cut a hole in the side of the cowl or order a slimline inverted pitts muffler? The pitts would look a lot sharper than haveing the the hole in the side of the cowl. I think I am going to replace the tail wheel also... It just doesn't look like it will hold up to me.

Jeff what size prop are you going to try on the 82? Oh it has been raining most of the night and they are saying more for Sat and Sun... even if I decide on the exhaust ......the maiden isn't looking good at this point.
