Lynn and All,
That is the method used on the Dyke Delta........The prop flange is
kept centered on the thrust line (center of cowling) and the rear of
the engine (firewall) is offset the designated amount and direction
according to propeller rotation........FWIW

Your correct Ernest. I should have specified an RV. I think all of the

Just trying to confirm.

With no experience at all in this area, I had imagined that the engine would be turned about a vertical line through the prop flange. This, to induce the required side thrust while keeping the spinner back plate centered over the hole in the cowling.
