Is it just me, or is the engine mount not quite symmetrical when looking at it end-on? It seems to be slightly asymmetrical on the drawings (plans) as well... strange.

Should be about 3* right and 1* down if I remember correctly. The rear of the engine will be off to the port side so the center of the prop will be centerline of the airplane.
Yep, its the wierdest thing to look at once you notice it. Also means you can't use the centerline of the engine as the centerline of the plane when doing cowl and baffle work.
I remember the day I hung the engine on my 6A. My buddies had left and I was sucking down a beer with a smile on my face and then I noticed the engine was crooked Keyrap, how did I muff this up? My beer soaked brain finally kicked in and I figured it out.
