new larger cowl from MAM. I am using Camloc fasteners to attach the cowl toHappy New Year everyone!
I just finished installing the cowl on my IO-540 Super Rebel. This is then
the firewall area. The Camlocs have some play which I didn't allow for and
now the front of the cowl is sitting lower than I planned. There is 3/8"
between the top of the starter ring and the inside top of the cowl. Will
this be enough clearance? How much movement of the engine should I allow for?
It would likely be enough on a 4 cylinder but I don't know if the 6's moveTim
SR060
around more or not. What Piper does on the cherokee 6 is put a couple
locator pins in the top cowl near the centre and a couple receivers that
attach to the firewall. This keeps the cowl from sagging down and nicely
centred on the spinner.
