Gary, I hesitated responding before this, because I thought you meant to the rear of the bulkhead where it mates to the crankshaft flange, and I had no way of accurately measuring that without a de-cowl. If you're looking for the measurement from the rear of the cowl hinge to the rear of the spinner (flush with the rear outer edge of the bulkhead) , mine is 40" (pic attached) This is a 2004 AG-5B.
