Can any 160 pacer owners help provide some technical information.
I looking for the measuremenet / length of the engine mount, straight 160 type, from firewall face to engine bolt face.
As I'm looking for cowling ideas fro my Auster Lycoming convertion. I just don't fancy spending $80 for the plans cd, just to see if its an option.
Thanks..:rolleyes:

OD have you spoken to Karl Tyre or the chaps at Spanhoe with the O-320 engined Auster?

Yes I have low, it was Carl I bought the engine frame from, plus new wider rear struts and a beagle dorsal fin and rudder.
The main sudgestion seems to be a modified Robin cowl, rather than the difficult original.
But just looking at other options after seeing some pictures of a 160, tri gear pacer in an old copy of PF.
