When doing auto conversion with a grlearbox that reverses rotation (spg-5 on subaru) does the offset of the engine change to the opposite side as say a lycoming, continental or other would with a standard rotation prop?
Two other subaru installations are using marcote gearbox and with its internal helical gear setup prop rotates in standard direction.

Does reverse rotation because of gearbox cause any other issues you normally wouldnt think of?
