RE: Crooked firewall
I have noticed several people recently having problems with the engine
cylinders/exhausts being too close to the cowling. In the new instruction
manual it is mentioned to mount the ending slightly off level (pilot side a
tad low I believe)
"Position the engine so that the center of the prop extension is actually
3/8" - 1/2" above the center of the cowl outlet. This is because the rubber
mounts will sag after a few hours of operation. Also rotate the pilot's
side of the engine down a 1/2" or so to help with cowl clearance. If you
don't do this, the top of the cylinder will contact the top cowl."
