>>Mike & others,>> I'm just starting to building all wood with Corvair engine. I weigh 140lbs and the wife is 100 lbs. Not quit munchkins though. I would like to endup with almost vertical cabanes maybe even slightly forward. Any suggestionof lengthening or shortening the engine mount to accomplish this, or am Idreaming. New to all this and looking for answers. Maybe other corvairflyers have the answer.>>Merrill>Mt.
