Gary,
Can you give a different reference for the measurement? With the MT
prop it's spinner is in a different place than with the Sensenich. I
could get a good measurement from the firewall to the Starter ring
gear as the entire cowling is off right now. Would that work or?
Would be a great time to put on the Jaguar cowl...hint hint

Hi Ned,=C2-
Unfortunately, the critical distance for me is the distance from the rear
of the hinge to the rear of the spinner backing plate. =C2-
I used N28840 for the initial fitting and mock-up of the cowling. =C2-I
used N119ST for the flight tests (Brian, I REALLY need the length of your
hinge to spinner) and installed the first one on mine. =C2-All of these
, to the best of my knowledge, are the same length. =C2-
When I installed the cowling on N1976T, I found I had to trim the center
hinge by about 1/4 inches. =C2-At the time, I didn't think anything abo
ut it. =C2-Now that I'm fitting another cowling, and it's shorter, I'm
trying to figure out why. =C2-I finally measured the distance from the
firewall to a point on my engine mount and compared it to three other pla
nes. =C2- That distance is 1/4 longer on mine. =C2-
Please, anyone on Team-Grumman, measure the distance from the rear of the
hinge on your cowling to the rear of the spinner bulkhead. =C2-I may ha
ve to change the tooling for two different cowlings.
For those who did measure and posted, a big thanks.
Gary

Gary, I stopped by my plane today and measured the cowl dimension. It is 39
3/4". My Tiger is a 1979 #1321.
