Hi Net
I started the day investigating my prop hub installation.  Again I laid the 
type 2 crank and My type 4 crank side by side.  Here are the numbers:  #4 
bearing Journal   T2 = 1.569  T4 = 1.569;  #4 bearing OD vs. Hub OD  1.971 and 
1.969; #4 bearing ID vs. Hub ID 1.573 and 1.570.  I measured the bearing 
recesses in both cases and they were the same even though the T4 hub had been 
riding inside of that recess.  Next I removed the fan support hub and the prop 
hub for a comparison of the tapered ends on the two cranks.  The external 
appearance of both cranks is the same at the taper with the exception of the 
key slot.  The T4 key slot was double the size of the T2 slot.  The bolt hole 
on the T4 had been enlarged to accept a 1/2 in fine threaded bolt and was deep 
drilled.  As for the prop hub, the size of it is designed to fit over an 
original crank which only needs to be modified by cutting a larger keyway and 
drill/tapping for the bolt.
