Ryan,
?
The drawings I sent you are the same drawings supplied to me by Rand Robinson 
20 years ago along with the mount I bought from them at the time that was built 
to that drawing.?
?
Your clearance from the firewall depends on your accessories.? However, for 
many years I had the antique pull starter and 20 amp generator mounted on the 
engine.? Those are about as big as you are going to find on that engine, and I 
had plenty of room to remove and re-install all of the accessories.? Even did 
so in the field following the KR Gathering three years ago when my generator 
crapped out just after I left the gathering and I had to install a new 
generator.? I have since switched to a B&C starter and Plane Power Alternator, 
which leaves even more room.? It's probably worth noting that my engine sits a 
bit closer to the firewall than most O-200s as I used a set of aluminum 
adapters and the C-85 engine mounts rather than the O-200 mount bushings.? I've 
got 20 years and 1150 hours flying behind that mount and have never had any 
problems with access to the back of the engine.

There are lots of photos of the engine installation on my web site at

Subject:?KR> 0-200 engine mount
I am trying to find out the distance the 0-200 engine should be from the
firewall face. The drawing I have indicates 11 ??. Is this what most KR?s
have?

Should I end up with about 1 ?? of clearance or less?



Thanks for any input.
