The counterbalanced crank to me is perhaps the most important plus on this engine.I have just made my decision to go with a Hartzell prop and after talking to Hartzel it is obvious that there are no problems with vibration on this engine even if you are using Lightspeed ignition.

What have others used to seal between the skirt and the plexiglass? Is it necessary to put some kind of selant between the two to keep water from seeping in while sitting on ground or can I seal with some kind of non RTV along the skirt/canopy junction after riviting it to frame? Searched archives but couldn't find a reference to this. Ed O'Connor/N366RV/Panama City Fl
