I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here but looking at the plan sheet for the 
KR-2S engine mount and the Cont. O-200 engine that Jeff sent me, I noticed that 
the spacing from the firewall to the O-200 engine mount casting (11-1/2") is 
just that, it does not show any isolator bushings which in the case of the 
O-200 would add another inch to the dimensions and make it (12-1/2") from the 
firewall to the casting and I kind of feel that might be just a little too far 
forward for the KR-2, so I made two sets of spacers for my jig so it can be 
made either way, 10-1/2" or 11-1/2".
I also made the top horizontal mount spacing 28" for the KR-2 and 30" for the 
KR-2S. The older KR-2 firewall was narrower than the new KR-2S by 1-3/4" 
according to both of my plan sets. But, does anyone have real time experiance 
with the KR-2 and the Cont. O-200 engine mounted farther forward than 10-1/2" 
from the firewall to the standard O-200 isolator mount bushings?
