I guess I should have thought of sending Marty an email first, I have one out to him now. Because I have changed out the gear to fixed from retract and had the engine off and the option to update the engine dropped in my lap at the same time, I missed something or I thought I missed something when I attempted to install the cowl and it didn't fit anymore. When I went over a bunch of pictures of before the gear change I noticed that the valve covers didn't line up on the fuselage like they did before. It is much higher than it used to be. I know the simple solution is just building a new motor mount, but still makes me curious what changed.

Marty Roberts owns the company now. Marty built his KR with a VW eons ago and has been good friends (and neighbor) with Dan Deihl since at least that time, so undoubtedly holds the answer to your question. I'm sure he wouldn't mind answering if you ask. If Marty doesn't have the answer, I'm sure he wold contact Steve Bennett who sold those cases since their inception until he sold Great Planes to Marty last year. -Jeff Scott Los Alamos, NM _______________________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://tugantek.com/archmailv2-kr/search.
