Mark, Do not forget the "offsets" with the engine. The exact
numbers can only be sourced from the factory, but from memory the
engine has to face to the right 1.5 degrees and down 1.78
degrees. Check these figures with the factory. regards, Neil.

Well I think I have designed my mount for the Glasair. Overall I
think it will be a bit overkill but I am ok with that.
Should put the CG close to the same spot as for the
Lyco. Thrust point in the same spot. Green bars were part of
the Glasair mount for a Lycoming. (There was also one between
the two upper points but I don’t think any of them are truly
necessary with the stabilization of the plate. Yellow bar I am
calling optional at this point to make it easier to work with
intake/exhaust. Another idea we had was to weld on a flange for
both sides of the yellow bar and have it bolt on during final
install.
Thoughts?
