Jake said: Do you have any pictures of your Cowling or have you not started it yet? I'm interested in how you are able to modify the cowling to decrease drag due to the different shaped engine.
It's all done, Jake. Trim paint and all. Take a look at my web site. It's all there in excruciating detail. This job was a lot of fun.

The cheeks on my cowl don't protrude past the line of the fuselage, so there "ought" to be more air to the prop. I made a "boat-tail" on the underside and put a cowl flap at the back. Hopefully the cowl will be fairly drag free.
Current first flight date predition is at the top of my main page...Any idea when you'll be making the first flight?
