Can't be done. I looked at this awhile back and the tension bolts
interfere with the front cover and inner passages. Also you still need
RTV on the bolts to damp the violin string vibration.

Of course if you start with a clean sheet and do a custom front cover
like Everett Hatch did no problem.

Paul,
It looks as if both end housings were custom. Did he have external oil
and water pumps?

I don't know. I would say probably.
Everett wrote an article on this engine for EAA Sport Aviation
mag. I would love to get a scanned copy of that article or just a zerox if
possible.
