Before embarking on this task any advice/info from those who may have been there before would be appreciated. Some questions that come to mind:- Are any changes to the existing cowling necessary ? Will a simple rearwards shift in the battery location compensate for the extra engine weight ? What is acceptable for the new Max all up weight ? Thanks in advance for the help.
