G1 & G2
I haven't been able to completely clarify this by searching so my apologies if this has been asked and answered 100 times before.
For a book chassis with a crossflow, from the text, the gap between G1 and F1 along C is 5". Is the gap between G2 and F2 the same?
Thanks,

Only a 100? I'd be surprised! 
Put the engine in... then fit the rails.
The size gap probably isn't the same because of the starter motor but be on the safe side by sitting the engine in place.
HTH,
James

Would be nice to know the dimensions you use (if you have the engine to fit) so that those of us building a chassis and that dont yet have the engine
can fit the rails

Was thinking the same but out of sheer lazyness as I do have an engine  It's just not in a very convenient place for test fitting!
I was wondering what the book chassis people order measure here too.
