Hi Jesse. I'm on my 3rd UHS spinner. The first one was misdrilled by
UHS but they replaced it for free even though it had been in service
for about 4-5 years. The 3rd one I bought when I changed my engine and
prop. I think they have a good product and I recommend it. Sent on the

Nope, that won't work without a spacer. Your only other option then is
a forward bulkhead only spinner or a spacer. Maybe you can get by with
a smaller skull cap style spinner, and still have it doing a good
cooling job.

Thanks Walter,
The Vans one does look like the real deal, but I doubt I would be able
to fit any rear facing bulkhead between my prop and nosebowl. I have
maybe 1/4 or 3/8" there. I may end up giving in to a prop spacer, but
the thought of spending a couple hundred on longer prop bolts is
annoying. This is one of many examples of how I will build my second
airplane better: )

I have installed the fiberglass UHS, aluminum from MAM, and the Vans
one on my engines. I much prefer the Vans. It is fiberglass, too, and
I think you can trim the rear a bit if necessary to fit. I had the
spacer on my prop, so just fitted the cowl to the prop and spinner.
But it will depend on just how much space you do have between your
nosebowl and prop. Maybe you can find an RV builder in your area, and
check it out in person to measure. Or just call Vans.

After almost a year I'm finally seriously considering a spinner. Other
than increasing my cruise speed by at least 20kts ; ) I'm hoping it
will improve cooling in the climb. I have a fairly large opening in
the nose bowl around the flywheel and I'm thinking enough high
pressure air is going to the lower deck under the engine that its
disturbing the pressure differential between upper and lower. Cht is
fine in cruise, but in climb I go over 400 on #3 pretty easy.
Anyway, I'm looking for advice on spinners. I have an o320/Sensenich.
The distance between the nosebowl and prop is minimal, and I really
don't want to use a spacer so I either need a forward facing spinner
bulkhead, or a uhs style spinner with no aft bulkhead. Has anyone used
the aircraft spruce brand aluminum spinners? I can get one of those
with a forward facing bulkhead.
Thanks.
Jesse

Thanks Rick,
I think I'm going with the BN-3 with a forward facing flange on the rear bulkhead. Is that what you did, or did you build your cowl so you had enough room for the standard aft bulkhead?
How long did it take to get it from ACS?
