Mine is on a Lyc IO-360 with constant speed prop.  The plate is just under 12" OD and fits the 12" spinner.

Has anyone had trouble with cracks developing around the four mounting bolt holes?  I think this was original from Lancair since there is a very similar photo in one of the older catalogs.  It has a very large hexagonal hole in the center and the four mounting holes already drilled.  Each of the mounting holes is backed up by a large rectangular aluminum doubler with four rivets each.

As you can see in the photo, these cracks are severe.  Any ideas?
