Sides are attached with screws to cylinders, however, front baffles riveted to sides and rear baffles same way on left and right side of engine. Had to remove rivets in order to pull baffles off for cylinder removal

RV-6 owner here. 10-12 hours of focused time to do the inspection. Add 50% for the loss of efficiency due to drop in visitors, potty breaks, interest net surfing on the phone, and the like.
Thank you Sam. If you add a baffle attached to the center line of engine from front to back, you will have an idea of what I had to take apart to pull cylinders. New owner is trying to contact builder about this, but no luck yet.
Sounds like a classic case of over-building something.
I think we've all done it.
