Default Eagle II trainer engine mount problem!

Hi,

I'm building a Carl Goldberg Eagle II trainer.... The problem I have run into is mounting the engine on the break away plate. Goldberg use's a break away plate for the engine mounting. I assume its so that a newbie can get the right thrust with no problems. The problem I'm having mounting a OS 40 FX. It can not sit back far enough in the plate so that the spinner is 1/8th from the front of the break away plate. If I sand it open to fit the engine will I throw off the right thrust to much?

Thank you in advance for your help and for reading this post!
