Yo Mike,

In the fuse former post you located the motor mount blind nuts on the firewall, are you using a Hyde mount? I was going to use a Budd mount, would there be any issues with locating it prior to setting the cowl on the fuse so the prop shaft is centered in the cowl/spinner opening? Or do you adjust and fit the cowl to the already installed engine and mount later on in the build sequence?

With the Budd mount you can change the metal mount part to accomodate different engines. For instance you can go from an OS 1.40 to a Webra 1.60 and still retain your spinner to cowl spacing if I understand it correctly. I'm not sure which way to go with the engine, OS or Webra, any thoughts or personal experience?

I'll be back!
