Why not just add a small spacer to the engine mount at the
firewall. This would
put the whole engine assembly forward a little bit giving you
more space at the cowl.
After all you probably only need about 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch or
so.

Subject: [LML] Re: Hartzell prop shim on Legacy
Paul,
You could consider a plate between the crankshaft
flange and the prop. However, that might change the
dynamic vibration and its harmonics? Seek advice from
Hartzell.
Can the rear of the spinner be shaved without reducing
structural integrity?

I'm running out of options for a
little extra clearance between the front of the cowl
and the prop spinner. Is there any way to add shims
to a Hartzell prop on the IO-550 to extend the
clearance?
