Default 37% CAP cowl width

What is the width of the engine cowling for the 37% CAP? I'd like to put an Evolution 116 in it if I were to build one, which is very likely.

Hello,

Its wide enough to hold a 3W120. No worries.

Thanks
John

Could the airplane be balanced with a pull-pull set up on the rudder and an engine as heavy as a 3W 120 or 140?

Hello,

Most have not used a 120. I using it as an example for cowl width. Most have used a 3W 106. The one below has a 106 at 27lbs.

Thanks

John
