I read in one of Van's handy FAQ articles that I could fit the cowl without the prop by mounting the spinner back plate to the starter ring gear with some 2-1/4" long spacers made from PVC. Now that I've read further into the spinner instructions, it looks like the back plate attaches differently with the constant-speed Hartzell prop I'm planning on using. The plate mounts to the back of the prop hub.
Is it still possible to use the 2-1/4" PVC pipe spacer trick? I'd like to start fitting the cowl soon, and haven't ordered the prop yet.
Thanks,
Dave
