I have a question regarding engine mounts. Is there a requirement for a different engine mount when using prop extensions? Van’s has (had) two different mounts available and my impression was that the one was for a longer engine prop combination.

Nope!...I have a feeling the mount for the o320 might be longer than for the 0360...i.e lighter engine is moved further forward for correct balance.
I vaguely remember reading this somewhere...But no an o360 with a prop extension would use the same mount as an o360 without an extension

That's the answer Van's gave me when I called a few weeks ago: the 320
mount moves the engine forward for cg reasons.
