My cowling is 25.5" firewall to spinner opening. My engine measures 27.5 from prop hub to tip of starter. I will have about 3/4 to 1" between starter and firewall. Giff and I will start building the engine mount next week. Tray is done except for some final welding. Do you remember how many yards of carbon fiber it took to lay up the cowling?
