In the original building manual they indicate that all the mounting points will be equipped with 8mm holes, and the top left front hole may require tapping. My new engine has an offset 6mm tapped hole in that location, I will attempt to include a picture. Has anyone else encountered this change, and what did you do? My initial inclination is to simply use the smaller bolt and leave the block unaltered.

No need for any chain if you follow the setup instructions, (one link of you want them looser than specified). The results are quite good, with around 3/4" of pretension the tailwheel is quite responsive, and kicks out much easier than before.
