Cowling Question
Posted: Sat Feb 18, 2012 9:00 am
For those who have installed the nosebowl-style cowl on the Rebel/Elite,
here is a simple question:
To provide adequate clearance for the B&C 90 degree oil filter, it looks
like the top spine and skin will have to be only 5 inches wide. Is there
any problem making it this narrow? I could widen it, but it would then be
at least 14 inches for the hinge and angle to clear the filter. The manual
suggests 12 inches.
And a painting question. I was thinking about using the white Stits EP-420
epoxy primer as the base coat throughout. I wonder what people's
experiences with this have been. It would be nice to avoid a separate white
topcoat if possible.
Many thanks!
