Installed engine mount

This evening I installed the engine mount. The holes on each corner lined up perfectly, but the two lower center holes, near the nose gear goes, did not line up. They were off by about 1/8". So I called Van’s….again. This time the solution was simpler then the landing gear. They told me to just drill out the holes, using the engine mount as a drill guide. It will cause the hole to become oval shaped. They assured me that many RV’s are done this way, and it’s pretty common. So, holes drilled out and bolts secured!

Removed the plane from the rotisserie. It's sitting on the main gear now

Reamed out the holes to 3/8"
