My understanding is that when putting in an offset, you put the center
of the prop on the thrust line and change the thrust line of the engine to
match the offset. So you would get an offset of the rear of the engine
0.75” to the left in this case.
I am building a Lancair and have absolutely no idea when discussing
RVs. :>)

Hi, I'm making my engine mount and I just want to be
doubly sure I'm getting this right. The engine offset as I understand is
0.75" to the right of centre as seen by the pilot for the following setup.
Thought it would be best to confirm now prior to welding.
