Hey all,

I have a three-year old Penn Yan overhaul with about 400 hours on it that was installed with new engine mounts. Engine runs great with no vibration.

I have noticed for some time that the rear of the spinner sits at a small angle to the cowl as pictured. The cowl itself has had numerous repairs and I am not convinced is as true as it left the factory. I intend to replace the upper and lower with new CF ones when I get her painted.

In the meantime, the mechanic has checked the engine mounts and everything appears to be solid.

I am curious if anyone has any thoughts (see picture). Thanks as always for the help.

Cary
