I was wondering if anyone would notice that Bill.
Lancair called for 1.5 degrees to the right, and down, for their stock
Continental/Lycoming layouts, and with much discussion, we decided that it would
work for us. We have 4" clearance with the tire flat and the strut
compressed, that should be enough I hope. That fan is nasty looking isn't
it.....(:-)

Looks really good, Greg. What thrust line
offsets did you use when you built your engine mount? How much ground
clearance do you have with that monster prop?
By the way, everybody. I have a set of prop
bolts that came from Saber Mfg. that I didn’t use. They are 7/16 X
6”. If anyone could use them, I can make you a good price. I
screwed them in one time, but realized that I needed to add an extension, so
couldn’t use them.

Progress
A couple of you wanted to see
what's going on, so here we are. Manifolds are out getting flow tested
and final welded. Next week is plumbing and wiring time. Gotta'
take a couple of days off, and do Hunney-do stuff. God, I love this
stuff......(:-)
Lancair 20B making
progress.
