Hi all, We are helping one of our members finish up his Piet that he was planning onusing a model A engine in. The motor mount is assembled, but the engine is notinstalled at this point. The question came up today about what it would taketo install a Corvair engine instead. It is one of the long fuselage designs.Thanks in advance for your comments.

Thanks Rick.
