[C320-list] Perkins Rotation

[McCullough, Kirk]

Thanks for the input. I found the statement in my Perkins manual that
says clockwise viewed from the front of the engine, which supports your
statement below of CCW at the flywheel.

However Catalina just confirmed to me that, at the prop, it rotates
clockwise or RH. This means the gearbox reverses the rotation of the
engine shaft. Who knew!

So anyway the prop is RH for this engine set up. I'm expecting my Kiwi
Prop in two weeks. At $1250.00 it's low cost and has good references
among C320 users.

I don't know if this will work but I draged and droped a page out of the

Perkins manual
It says "Rotation is anti clockwise as viewed from the flywheel"
