Because of its gearbox Rotax 912 is shaking quite a bit side-to -side during shut down. Wondering what is everybody doing for clearances from fiberglass cowling to cylinder heads. In my situation it is the biggest concern is cylinder heads because engine mount is down low. My initial thinking that about 1 inch needed for sure. Maybe I'm wrong.
