Greetings, Im about to order a prop for my model 6 and i need to figure out what spinner diameter to get, it seems like all of the model 7's are using 11.3ish but my current spinner is around 9 inches and lines up fairly well with the air inlets in the cowling. This leads me to believe that the openings are significantly different in the model 7 cowl (i know the entire cowl is different). Can anyone confirm and recommend a spinner size? maybe the model 6 are inlets are closer to the model 4 smooth cowl (or model 5 smooth cowl if there was such a thing). My worry is if i get too large of a spinner i wont be able to get my lower cowling off. Worst case i pull my current spinner off and get an accurate measurement. I was just hoping someone could save me a trip to the airport. Thanks!
