Paul,

I don't think that the lower mount point will work attached to the nose
gear leg.  The nose gear leg moves up and down along the firewall and is
cushioned by the bungee.  Page two of the following link has a photo of
the installation: http://www.zenithair.com/stolch801/data/gear-nose-s2.pdf

I would feel more comfortable if we could somehow attach that top
firewall mount point to the oil pan mount.  Is it just too tight to the
firewall?  Perhaps the engine cold be moved a bit further forward to
accomplish this.  I do not have any dimensions but the Walter LOM is
another Chris Heintz suggested installation and the length of the LOM is
substantially further forward than the Lycoming or the present rendition
of the Rotary.  Here are a few pics of that installation:

I agree. I'll think of something else. Perhaps rivet the bracket to the angles.
I'll make  detail 3D of the gear leg.

Thanks Patrick.

Hi guys

I need some more measurements. Here is what I need.
You can load the jpg's  into MS Paint and mark them up and send them
back. Or just answer the questions. What ever is easier.
