 Your question you asked and I answered had nothing to do with distance  between bulkheads... you asked about the bolt pattern of the rear bulkhead and  that is what I was answering.

 But if you simply use the numbers I gave you should be able to have  come up with the distance. 

  

 Here is your post or was this someone else's it sometimes gets  confusing

  

  I also have Van's spinner FP-13 but the rear bulkhead bolt  holes do not fit WW hub and the front bulkhead would not fit Warp Drive prop at  all.  I emailed WW numerous times inquiring about the front  crashplate/bulkhead but he would not reply.  Can you post the  bolt hole patterns and how you got the front bulkhead to  work?

I'm not sure who you meant this post for but it doesn't answer the  question I've posted repeatedly, which is what is the distance between  bulkheads?  Obviously you know, or you wouldn't be able to recommend 3/4"  spacers for some combination of prop and crush plate that you know about. 

I  thought there'd be enough corvair builders on this list using this spinner that  someone might know the dimension, but I'll try asking on the RV board.

Thanks  for your post anyway.

By the way I've posted a picture of the UHS spinner on  my website  at:

Thanks for providing alternatives to WW products as I have given on WW.  The last item I need to purchase to complete my Corvair/601 project is the front crush plate and no response from WW.

  The spinner that Van's sells will work just fine if you do some modifications to it. The Hole pattern is SAE 2 and you can either enlarge the holes in the lower bulkhead or you can drill new one's using the prop hub as a drill guide. If you use the prop hub  it will be self aligning with the center hole in the bulk head and then you can simply drill new holes. This bulkhead is in compression so either way (enlarging the first set of holes or drilling new one's) will work just fine. 

 As for the top bulkhead you can either continue to try and get the one WW makes if you ever get an answer from him....... OR you can go to Lowe's and buy 6 1 inch spacers and 6 flat washers and drill the front bulkhead and crush plate for 1/4 20 screws and that will give you the perfect height for a Warp drive prop. 

 If you are using a wood prop you will need 6 3/4 spacers and 1 washer. I will post a pic of one I did and you can see it isn't that hard to do. I like the Van's front bulkhead much better than WW's because it makes the spinner rigid and WW's can be moved from side to side but if you can't get one what's the point.

 Here are some pics of it  and if you need anything else I will be glad to answer my email's and help you thru the process.
