I am at the point in my RV-9 build where I need to build the engine mount.  The main problem here is I don't have the caster and camber angle for the gear leg socket. Vans keeps these measurements classified. They did tell me that the Gear leg intersection fairings for the RV-7 would not fit the RV-9 because the angles were different so that would lead me to believe that the RV-7 and RV-9 use different engine mounts even though the fuselage is basically the same.  There are not many RV-9 being built, and none with a Rotary that I know of.  Would anyone in the group happen to know these angles or knows of someone that does, besides Vans?  

Thanks
Bob
