Front bearing is machined into the hub on both the Great Plains and
Revmaster. I still recommend that you contact both of these to get answers
you are looking for. Joe Horvath and Marty will surely be glad to assist
you.

VW auto users consider it the "wrong end," but the overwhelming number of
aircraft that use the VW engine have done it this way, ever since the
original Volksplane (which i think was the first VW powered plane).
If you do it the other way, the bolt holes on the crankcase wind up on the
"wrong end"
I believe the aerovee turbo uses the "wrong" end of the crank.

You can publish later.
It may already have been mentioned, but the stock VW crankshaft is a forged
crankshaft already -- that's how VW makes them. The problem happen when
people want an aftermarket crankshaft with a longer stroke. This is when
you have to make sure what you're getting.
