I need to know what the correct height of a 914-6 motor is at the front of the motor as shown in the picture. I think my motor is too high at the front.

Mine is a -6 conversion and I made the engine mount myself to match drawings that I generated from a real -6. Unfortunately I misplaced the drawings of the mount and I don't have the measurements anymore.
The concern is that I don't think the front section of the engine tin matches the seal as well as I would like. I thought my engine might be too high at the front. It sounds like I might be OK but if anyone has more measurements I am open to listening to suggestions on the correct height. Thanks! Jeff B |

Jeff B Hi Jeff The picture that I posted illustrates that there is less than a 1/4" difference in height between your engine and my original 6 engine. Other measurements ? ......... I think you'll be OK. Rory |
