I would lose a race to a snail right now.I had read on a build were a guy mounted a 1/4" block behind the engine and I just scan the build going "what for?" well I found out the engine sits way to far back.I almost wanted to quit the build but hey I thought she may still look OK.A couple of pics....

Looks good. Not sure how that engine could come forward 1/4" as the prop would stick out quite a bit, no?

Yea Andy from the back of the prop to front case is about 1/4" wish I had seen the build earlier not about to rip it apart something to live with.
