ORIGINAL: cadconversions

I'm having a problem with the center line of the prop hub. It's not lined up in the center of the motor and I'm thinking about relocatin the engine down about 3/8" to get it centered up. I'd have to replace the blind nuts and probably add some light ply. should I do it or forget about it? Really don't like the spinner off center.

What engine are you using? Did you use the template for the motor mount holes in the manual? I really cant think of an engine that dosnt have the mount lugs on the crank center line. Does the cowling just not line up right for you? maybe the cowling is mounted a little cocked? Could you give picture of your problem?
