Default RE: change engine position


ORIGINAL: dixie flyer

Can you change engine position( vertical to horizontal, horizontal to inverted) with out affecting the plane.
Yes, if there are centerlines already drawn on the firewall. If not, you need to draw them based on your existing engine mount. Then just line up the engine's crankshaft centerline with the intersection of the horizontal and vertical centerlines on the firewall.
