Cool, thanks. Over on the GG they're discussing splitting the original
lower cowl at the bottom center rivet line and putting in a new doubler with
riv-nuts so that it could be removed in two pieces. I attempted to point
them your way if they were looking to upgrade:)

I think you have a much great chance of finding pieces in your muffler. If
they were small, they went on through. I will cut open your filter. I
don't expect to see anything.

Thanks jamey. Tell them I've also split about 6 cowlings down the middle
using the same, or similar technique that Cliff Hanson uses.
I'd split yours, but, someone has riveted a hughe doubler to it.
Also, your engine mount needs to come off and be stripped and repainted.
It's pretty badly corroded and rusty in many places. Time to sell.
