engine in place

Nose ring in place
(upside down)

Easy access to
nose ring bolts

Bulkhead for nose ring is of ordinary plywood. I could have used CF but this weighs only 7 g glued in place :) CF fire wall weighs 36 g .

Engine support still waiting for an operation to reduce a few grams, see pen markings.

Nose ring slipped to be upside down, please forgive me. Notice the cut out to give space for the carb.
