Dear list,

	My -10 build includes the SJ Cowl and a Hartzell BA prop. My

understanding is that the James Cowl requires a 14" spinner. I know that

Deems and others with the James Cowl are using different props that seem

to ship with the spinner. Nice for them! 

	I have sourced a Hartzell A-2297 metal spinner which Hartzell

says is 13.9" x 17.6". I am not sure what I am more surprised about

Hartzell not having a single photo, rendering or dimensional drawing /

spec sheet on the spinner or that they want either side of $2,000 for

the spinner. (Polished $2,073, unpolished $1,791). Geeeez

	Is there anyone out there using the James cowl/Hartzell BA

combination that has solved this issue already?

	BTW I have contacted Whirl Wind, Aero Composites & UHS and none

of them have, make or sell spinners for this application.



Thanks,

Robin

I contacted Hartzell and they confirmed the A-2297 is the right spinner for

the Van's BA Hartzell prop and the Sam James cowl.



I purchased a new polished Hartzell A-2297 spinner for $885 from Mustang

Aeronautics.  The unpolished version is $785.  Here is the contact

Carl,

	Have you received the spinner and if so how is the fit at the

root of the prop? The spinner looks kind of pointy from what I can tell

from the photos on Chris' site. 

	Do you have any photos of the spinner/cowl combination? I see

you are on your wings so my guess is that you haven't purchased the cowl

or the prop yet.

Yeah, buy it from Mustang Aeronautics.  I paid $885 + shipping for the 

polished version.  Best price I could find.

His price has increased to $915.00 plus shipping for the polished which

is still a heck of a lot better than $2,100.00



Thanks,

Robin
