O-360 with fixed pitch prop

Post by Oldgeezer »

Is anyone flying or mounting an O-360 with fixed pitch prop on their RV9. I would like to order my finishing kit and was reading some past post, that because the O-360 is an inch wider than the O-320, that it would probably require an RV7 cowling for clearance. Also was curious about the prop pulse comments on possible tail cracks with the larger engine. Any comments or advice would be appreciated.
