Spinners for Fixed pitch Props

[Dave Baxter]

Originally this was posted on the Pitts forum but thought a Skybolt builder might also have the answer?

So hey what spinner do you guys use on an IO-360 Lyc
with three hole piper type nose bowl with a fixed pitch propeller?
Specifically the distance between the starter ring and the back of the
prop? Do you use a prop spacer? and if so what kind of lengths and
what kind of props and especially what kind of spinner? Does one use,
say for a 13" spinner. Also if it is going to be used for aerobatics how long should the spacer be without incurring a lot of stress on the C/S Flange?
