A65

Mounting an A65 on my DE, needed a longer engine mount for the mags, has anyone moved station 1 back to accommodate an A65?

Check with Rob, he has worked with the A65 from day 1 of his building venture from the DE starting point... C:-)

Sorry for the late reply, Roberto.  I've been away from the forum for a bit.  Yes, I did move the firewall back as far as I could and still have rudder pedal room.  I believe it was about 5".  The engine mount has to be longer to accommodate the mags.  This moves the engine back 2 0r 3" from plans.  I did this to accommodate the extra weight of the A65.
