Default james cowl w&b

I'm trying to plan ahead(cheap time filler). I'm planning on my modest VFR RV-7 to come in around 1080#, but wonder about w&b issues.

If anyone else(-7) running a IO-360, Sam James cowl/plenum, extended hub Hartzell or WW200rv prop, do you have CG issues?

Default W & B

I have an IO-360, Saber extension and Hartzell blended airfoil with SJ cowl. 7's have tended to have a rear CG bias anyway and moving the prop forward has eliminated the problem. My CGs are all within limits. I can send you copies if you would like.
