Hap,

As I understand it RE CG.  Neico Aviation was experimenting with forward CG
by adding a harmonic balancer on the flywheel. I know, I was there to
receive training in the 360.  That was the day that Doug Weeldryer went up
to test the balancer.  He asked if I wanted to go, I rightly said no.  That
was the day the left inboard GM3 hard point collapsed on turnout and the
corresponding mandatory service bulletin was published for us guys to
install a spacer between the hardpoint and the top web spar.  Guess what, I
was the first homebuilt to install that little item probably coincident with
the factory plane.

Regards the CG I know Orin was experimenting with it and stated the plane
flies better.  That's all I know.
