Starting to work on air baffling around engine. Also visible is a scat tube to route cooling air to the coils and fuel pumps.

I've read that the weight of this conversion, including oil and prop, is about 230 lbs. To verify this I'd have to put the engine on a scale. I have not done any W&B other than "back of the envelope" calculations.
I also have a 5th bearing on the nose, and a BRS between the panel and firewall. Battery is in the tail, as well as having installed a 650 canopy which includes some 4130 aft. It all balances "on paper".................

Looks all neat and clean in there. I'm also interested in what the weight turns out to be.
