    Default Camlocs on Carbon Fiber Cowl

    The CF cowl is fairly thin. Are people countersinking the holes to accommodate the flare below
    the top of the stud or just drilling the hole to 0.310 as specified in the diagram below?

    I countersunk with most likely increased the hole size due to how thin the carbon is. But so far so good. Everything fits great. I did use the “flattest”c-sink that I own but don’t remember the angle.
