RE: JimC
He's been around on the Piper Cub/J-3 and Supercub forum for years. if you do a search there and maybe elsewhere you'll note his contributions. I think he has an engineering background and is experienced in mods. He's a supporter of O-200's vs other engines and has done some graphics...

Did anyone make it the seminar? It was last thursday. Tim -
There is a letter out there somewhere that says the prewar built up ribs are interchangeable with the stamped ribs. The aileron cove is a different shape between the 2 types though. Look at D&E, the sell an experimental stamped rib. TimLeave a comment:

They probably used the philosophy of one approved part is eligible to be used on another aircraft, ie it worked on the Luscombe, it will work on the Taylorcraft. Similar installation...Leave a comment:

Rod length is the same for all of the engines that we deal with. I would love to get some measurements on the Lycon pistons along with some weights.
Also a real dynometer would really give true numbers, but most of us cannot afford to start doing mods, run on a dyno then do some more...Leave a comment:

Jim, considering the 8.5 to 1 piston has a taller deck height, how can a shorter c-85 piston give more compression? Tim
C-85.......1.698-1.708......????
O-200D...1.745-1.750......8.5-1 compression
Performance Aero pistion is 1.870 ....... 9.0-1 compression...Last edited by astjp2; 1 week ago.Leave a comment:

Do you want me to pursue this? if so what do you have for installed equipment? and I will need you to PM me your aircraft information so I can submit a 337, once its approved, we can order the equipment and install. Tim...Leave a comment:

Well I am not sure if that portable ever made it into production. It was going to be a product of ADS-B Technologies out of Anchorage but I have not seen the status on their products in a decade. A lot of companies were born and died in the last decade due to some big companies getting patents and issues...Last edited by astjp2; 2 weeks ago.Leave a comment:

I have slicks and REM37by plugs, they are about 1/2" shorter than a REM40E plug on the top. I have had the problem with the points and I need to inspect the rotor now. No AD's and they come with gears, bendix you will need to find gears for the impulse couplings.Leave a comment:

LFL and LEL need to be outside the threashold, plug in a vacuum cleaner to the exhaust port and let it run for an hour or 2, if you smell active gas, its not enough. or just take it to someone who specializes in fixing them, like a radiator shop. I cant fix it for the same price they can. TimLeave a comment:

It passed or it would not have ever been stc’d so just because someone has a gauge on the dash, does not mean it is accurate, calibrated or even meets the testing requirements, or even installed without modifying itLeave a comment:

To do it right, pull the tank and take it to a radiator shop, they can remove any corrosion, repair any damage and reinforce the bung for the fuel outlet. That is the place they most likely crack. It needs to be an old time shop that actually does repairs. If you need to replace the elbow screen or...Leave a comment:

Ding Ding ding...does anyone know what the temperature rise needs to be for carb heat at the base of the carburetor in a certified system?Leave a comment:

It is just a posting about data, people claim that the 85 piston was blah blah blah and when you looked at the numbers, it was more realistic to use aftermarket pistons if you want real performance. I have the o-200D manuals and if you compare them to the A manual, the inspection criteria was WAY more...Leave a comment:
