Began fitment of lower cowl by marking out locations for gear legs and fuel drain. Slid lower cowl into place and measured front face of cowl offset by approximately 1″. Trimmed back edges of cowl 1/2″ at a time while moving cutouts forward at the same time. Refit cowl and determined that proper forward alignment is being prevented by forward bottom edges of the oil cooler impacting the cowl. Made cut out on front of cowl for oil cooler to get better look at engine interference. Will need to solve interference issue before continuing to fit lower half of cowl.
