Bear in mind, this is not how it is usually installed, and really should not be necessary. However, from an engine vibration standpoint (airframe issues not considered) this is the optimal configuration.
I'd be more concerned that the deformation of the front plate either allows the prop to "work" or the vibration worked the bolts and caused the deformation. I'd try running without the spinner (be sure your bolts are not too long!) to see if there is an improvement. Also, make sure that the prop bolts are maintaining the proper torque. -- John Cooper Skyport East www.skyportservices.net
