Got the DA35 mounted and setup. Some aspects were easy, but there was definitely some work involved:

Holes drilled, standoffs and engine mounted. Thought pattern was different, but turns out it's the same as a DLE30

So the choke setup isn't the easiest if you want a use a rod pull inside the cowl, and activate the choke with a finger through a cooling inlet. For a choke servo or bell crank setup in the fuse it works nicely.
Ended up rigging a rod pull, but had to get find a small head screw otherwise the throttle binds.
So right now the choke works fine, but won't close for choking with throttle above 1/3rd. Funny little safety bonus!

Test fit looks good!

Installed a Pitts muffler; Had to trim the lower motorbox overlap to get proper clearance.

Had to cut away a fair amount of cowling to get it on with the big Pitts muffler ports, but that'll just help keep it cooler
Used a piece of large rubber grommet to protect the spark cable.

All ready to start, I used a 20x8 Mej since it's what I had on hand, however planning to use a 20x9 falcon eventually.
