    With the right tool the clutch came off in about 30 seconds. I am waiting on my c box from Teal with adapter hopefully this week. Working on cowling mockup and engine mounts to keep me busy. Ordered the radiator yesterday, and will order prop this week. Need to decide on the tires I want, the biggest for the buck 6in rim.

    I have thought of going back to the float fitting center for just that reason,but trying to shave weight. Maybe on the fourth set. I have thought of offering them up to someone willing to test, because I am so far out.

    I under stand what you are saying is when landing and braking the gear could go aft? To do what Beringer does I would have to omit the rear leg , or it would bind. Again I am amazed how much lateral force the groove gear can take with a little clamp holding it to the fuse, think of that load.

    I would lengthen the fuse if I could find out where to cut. It looks like a lot of work with the rudder cables replace  elevator trim cable  replace and realigning the elevator pushrod tube.

    I would move the back of the motor and leave the prop centered in the cowling cut out. Do the avids fly tail down our level? Can somebody check the prop flange to fire wall with either 582 912 or soob. This is a measurement I should have taken before selling my 582. To night I sat the motor in the rough location, it looks like if I cut two tubes out of the way and reroute I could move the motor back 3.5 inches is this worth 5 hrs work? I know my time is not worth shit but I do want to be done and flying someday, you guys are great.

    The shocks cost $249 each and weigh 7.8 pounds the hole gear weigh about 45lbs.I plane on building litter ones after testing to see what I can shave and get away with

    Bottom of fuse is a lot different than fire wall. When I level below seat fuse the fire wall is about 1 in out of plumb, Maybe go with the average?

    Working on motor mount for Yamaha, I think Teal said level prop flange with fire wall, what should I use for the  water line? Fire wall and door sill / elevator are different. I  am going with 3 degree to the port.
