Hey guys, I am going to building my GP Eagle soon and putting a DA 50 on the nose. Can you fellows show me some pics of how you mounted the engine. Any helpful hints are greatly appreciated. Also, what finished weights are you guys getting with this combo and please include if you have smoke on yours.

Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.

Sorry I dont have any pics but You will have to extend the tandoffs by about 1/4". I just used some aluminum plates to do it. Also on the bottom of the nose is the bare wood section. I cut an access plate there to get to my mount bolts and install the ignition battery and switch. It made life much easier. The firewall is double wallled so after you drill your holes for the mount you will have to enlarge the holes in the 2nd bulkheadto let the bolt heads pass.
