Hi folks,
Looking for something obvious that I'm probably overlooking. I did my first trial fitting of the prop hub last night and it's rubbing up against the cowls. There's also about a 1/4" vertical mis-alignment. I hung my engine first, then fit the cowl after letting it "settle" for about a month. I searched through the forum last night and saw that there's a little bit of room to trim the aft end of the backing plate, but since I have two misalignments I suspect that I've done something wrong.
thanks in advance,
