Subject: [FlyRotary] firewall to prop flange

after mounting my psru to my renesis engine and onto my klepis mount I measure 39" from flange to firewall.  my existing -6A w/ O-320 measures approx. 33".  in the back of my mind I remembered 4-5" difference, not 6".   I assumed that all the geometry had been calculated when I ordered the engine mount.  I currently have 5" between the water pump pulley and the firewall, which is wonderful, but, I don't want my battery(s) in the tail either.  am I going to get into weight/balance issues?  what dims do other RV's have?     kevin
