Gary,
I did reverse the hinge barrel to the outboard side for clearance
purposes.  It improved the
nose landing gear clearance and presented no problems at all. Prior to
permanently attaching the hinge assembly, hot glue it into position on
the tunnel so you can assure the gear door can fully open without
binding against the fuselage area. I dremeled a recess on the interior
side of the door edge and recessed the hinge barrel to prevent binding.
