Guys:
I started to install my engine mount today. The top two holes lined up well on the QB fuselage. The two bottom corners are a little off but I can pull on them and things should work out OK. The two center bottom holes however, do not line up well at all. One of these holes hole in the fuse is between 1/3 to 1/2 outside the diameter of the bolt pass through on the engine mount.
I have an email to Van's with pictures, but I wanted to know if others have had this problem and what was the fix. How much can I "tweak" the mount with some boards and a bottle jack before I over stress the welds, etc.? Any opinions would be appreciated. TIA
