Paul,  can  you give me the exact locations for the lower center
engine
attach points?   Are there clearance issues I should be aware of?
Thanks,  Jerry

Here is your drawing and a drawing of what I did.
My drawing shows the holes inside the front motor mount brackets
but it will work just as well with them out side the brackets.
Here too is the firewall dimensions that came with the KIS Cruiser.

Unfortunately I don't have the drawing on the position of the brackets
here so perhaps Charlie can send you a sketch. Maybe later today I can
get
that
info.

If I understand the drawings, it looks like a high posibility of
interference with the Cruiser nose gear and linkage. I would
strongly suggest a mock up to check this - Vance.

I'll do a 3D shortly Vance but mine clears fine with the diagonals
inside the two nose gear brackets. See the pictures I just up loaded.

And here are yet more pictures.

Paul - looks like it clears OK - The actul part beats a mock up
any time  - Vance
