Layout/engine mount connections for TIO-540-AE2A or TIO-540-W2A
In trying to design the engine mount and cowling of the Praetorian, I kind of need a three-view design of the engine I am intending on using. I keep getting bounced back and forth between Lycoming and their distributors (each refers me to the other). Neither seems to want to provide the information I need. Can anyone help? Suggestions?
My only other thought would be to start contacting the owners of local aircraft fitted with these engines (like the Piper Malibu Mirage) which I really don't want to do. I just don't think I would get very far by asking folks "Hey would you mind popping the cowling on your plane so I can take a tape measure to your engine?"
