Hi!

I was wondering if you can help me

Do you know if LR13 and LR14 was accurate in the plans?

If you visually look at the plans, LR13 is a longer piece than LR14, But if you look at the measurements

LR13(230) vs LR14(395)

Looking at some pictures of peoples build, it seems the visual is wrong, and LR13 should have been drawn as the smaller of the two?

Your right, in the isometric view of the lower rails, LR13 and LR14 look to be swapped when compared against the detail view of each. I cant comment on which was is correct. On my Haynes build I redesigned this portion of the frame to fit my design goals and did not include LR13 or LR14. I would take a close look at how you plan to mount your engine and design the inside lower frame rails to suit the engine mount locations.
