I need some advice from former Lancair builder's. I am building a 235 with 320 wings and extened wing tips. My intentions are to use a lycoming IO360 angle valve as a power plant. I have purchased a dyna focal mount from a builder who decieded to use the long mount on his 320 for better cg envelope and improved fire wall clearances.  My question is will the long mount benefit me as well or on a 235 will this make the plane too nose heavy?  I am also running a Hartzell constant speed prop.  I know guys with 320/360 can get away with it but is this outside the boundaries for a 235?
