Hill,
It looks as if they supply different sets of engine mounts. Which set did you end up ordering?
In a couple of review articles I read they kept all windows off just because of that reason. Although it is a little difficult to get your hands inside, I think the windows are a must. :-)

Thanks for all the helpful info.
Flyn,

I ordered the 1-1/2 - 1-15/16 stand offs and used all of the spacers so the measurement for mine ending up being 1-15/16. I read that not every plane has the same measurments. I mounted the cowl and measured from the firewall to the cowl and added 1/8 inch. Then I measured the depth of the engine with the mounting plate attached and the difference was the size standoff I ordered.

Hope that helps

Hill
