Hello,
I tried searching to see if anyone has done the above combo, but I wasn't able to find a thread ( sorry if it does exist).
My husband and I working on an RV-8, and we really like the look of the James or showplane cowl, but I do know it is difficult to fit the angle valve engine in it, and the prop likely not clear the inlets ( at least on the James cowl). Haven't seen anything yet about the showplanes cowl. I've read that DanH made his factory cowl look like a James cowl.
If anyone else has experience with this combo, I would appreciate any inputs. We are also trying to avoid the use of the prop extension.
