Rusty,
Would it be possible to change the offset by shimming the mount attach bolts on one side?
Just a thought.

Well, 'bout ready to place my order for my Monster
76/88 prop from
Performance Propellers.  Tracy's is 74/88 but he
feels that with the 2.85
even longer diameter props can be accommodated.  If
too much prop, Clark
Lydick will trim the diameter.  So will ship my RD-1B
to Tracy to have it
converted to a 2.85 RD-1C after I finish attending a
couple more flyins in
May.  Hard to get his "vertical" take off out of my
mind.

Do you have a left offset in your mount?  I sure wish
I didn't, but it
seemed like a good idea at the time.  Now I just
can't stomach the
monumental re-work that would be required to go back
to zero offset.

Rusty (hoping Tracy's old prop will make me feel
better)
