-Did some more figuring out of the center (fwd) baffling - the one that goes over the nose of the engine. I located and drilled two of the support brackets and the bracket that ties to the crankcase top. Since the prope and starter ring gear are in the way I made the command decision to remove the prop so I would have unfettered access - plus I needed to modify the prop bushings any way - they are approx .020 too long. I started the prop removal process and almost had it done when the bell rang - time to go to work...
The blue bracket on the left was drilled to the inlet and the center baffle (L/R)
Prop removal - My buddy Greg's hoist makes easy work of it - thanks Greg!
