*-------------------------------------------------------------------------*I have set up and am about to marry a J200 Jabiru cowling to the Rebel
firewall and have just done the final check on the engine offset on my
Jabiru engine (using a Jabiru factory mount) and it is 1.2 degrees - but
to the left looking from the pilot seat.
I think this is the right amount but to the wrong side judging by
information on the list
I am waiting for information from MAM as there is nothing in my manuals
nor in the CD manual.
It troubled me at the time of mounting the engine and Rick Harper had
given me an alignment of 3 inches to the right of the tailpost but a
recheck reveals that that was looking from the FRONT and mine would be
to the left looking from the front.
A recent posting from Bob Patterson seems to support Rick's number and
orientation. Could someone confirm the orientation of the 1 degree
offset for me please?
If the orientation is to the right it would mean that I would have to
jack forward the left side mounts about half and inch.
Is it OK to do that with Penny Washers as, it seems, I accidently
allowed almost that much in my bolt lengh?
Thanks
