Hi,


Some questions:

Any advantage to using an under drive pulley in an aircraft
installation?  Would it help with the higher constant RPM's I will be
running?

I have to move my alternator on my Renesis engine to the side, rather
than have it on top as it comes, when I do so I will have an
interference problem with the pulley belt and the crank angle sensor.
Can I use washers or a plate to move all the pulleys out to eliminate
the problem? Would there be any concerns doing this?

Does anyone know of a good oil filter relocation kit for the Renesis
engine?


Thanks,
K11

I can see your problem Paul. Not a lot of room under the
top of the cowl.

How far would you need to move the pulley out to clear
the ign pickup? I think a 1/4 inch would not hurt anything.
