Has anyone purchased the Lycoming 540 mount from Steen, and hung it on a Firebolt fuselage. I am wondering if there is any difference on the specs between the two models. Such as distance from the firewall to the prop flange. Maybe the thrust line location in reference to the top longerons. I don't want to run into a weight and balance issue later.
If some one with the Skybolt prints can take a look:
The Firebolt plans show a distance of 41.5 inches from the fuselage mounting spools to the front face of the prop flange. The crankshaft longitudinal centerline to the top longeron centerline is 5.5 inches.
