Motor mount spacing

I'm building a motor mount. Where can you find the blueprint six hole spacing for the 9 series and what's the main gear angles, lengths, and diameter for holding the legs?

Buy a mount from Vans, cut off the parts you done want, add on the new parts.

Or see if you can borrow a mount from a local builder, and reverse engineer a jig from it.

Good luck, Mike

Yep, I figured from your log in name that you were trying to fit a diesel to the plane.

You asked for firewall and landing gear specs, this is what I was referring to, that you could reverse engineer---------AKA-------copy from a borrowed mount.

Again, good luck.
