Groan...

Fred,

How much clearance is needed to not hit the mount during startup and
shutdown?

On a related topic.  If running a Continental IO-550 you will find that the
engine mounted oil cooler will hit the engine mount either on start up or
shut down.  Place a 1/8" large (2" diam.) washer under the two right engine
mounts to raise the engine slightly.
