Mike,
I did just what Pete mentioned and spaced the camlock body away from the lower
cowl with a piece of .032 aluminum. It worked great. Picture attached.

Mike, you might try another fastner, like Skybolt, they are adjustable. Here are
a couple of links. The first is how I discovered Skybolt Fastners use on a Sonex
cowl. Scroll to the bottom of the page for recommendations. Second link is
to Skybolt.

Bill,
Once you've spacer centered your wheel in the fork, the brake calipers
will bolt on and you can decide what may be needed to get the pads
float pattern centered each side of the rotors.

Bill,
The Zenith site has an 6 page manual that I used to install my brakes.
http://www.zenithair.com/pdf-doc/6-gear.pdf
Have you seen it. I will also attach the PDF.

All-
Once again, I was floored when I received prints from a builder that
