    --> RV4-List message posted by: "Steve Sampson" <SSampson.SLN21@london.edu> George - thanks for the reply.Tell me do you understand the length issue? I would want to put the cowl on an O-320 with an MT constant speed prop. Do you know if that works, or do they still they still need this 4" spacer, because that is clearly not a option with an MT prop on the front. I would be very grateful if you have managed to understand this issue and can explain. Thanks, Steve. PS What rebate did you get from VANS on the finish kit presumably without a cowl kit? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Deal Fair" <dealfair@usawide.net> Subject: RV4-List: Re: Holy Cowl > --> RV4-List message posted by: "Deal Fair" <dealfair@usawide.net> > > Hi Guys, > > I just received my Holy Cowl last Thursday and should receive the plenum > this week.
