Does anyone have photos of inner to outer cowl installation? Noticed that some of the Webshots pages are down. Need to look at some detail in reshaping the panel for a better fit. Thanks, Mike

no hurry on this one, too hot to work in the shop now, but am interested in reshaping the radius of the curve, and other modifications that others have done. I have a general idea what has to been done, always looking for other ways or ideas.

Sunny and a bit of a breese on the northern coast of Oregon. High temp around 65. A warm day for us. I'm just saying....

Watch it dave... We'll have to install more traffic lights if people find out! Traffic is already a drag this time of year...

OP: I spent hours shaping an aluminum panel and when I was finally ok with it I did it again in steel. Took less time to fiddle with the Al. And I knew where to cut and fold the steel.
