Great choice of engines. The oil tank is not so much a problem as the carburetor and intake. The oil tank requires only few inches of drop in the lower cowl. If the cowl is already fabricated, just remove material until it will mount to the airframe and then reconstruct to clear the tank and carburetor. http://www.krnet.org/krs/lflesner/101009203m.jpg The extra bump in the cowl is well worth the small penalty for the reliability you get from keeping the engine setup as stock and reliable as possible. My 0-200 is stock, the way it came the C-150, and has not given me a single maintenance issue in 475 hours to date on the carb or intake area. Larry Flesner
