|
|
I have an IO-360B1B engine with forward facing injector. Not sure if
they had this as standard or if it was modified by Lycon. On the back of
the sump is a similar sized boss (about 3/4" thick with 4 holes drilled
and tapped at the same spacing as the injector body mounting studs but
there is no bore for induction.
The front boss appears to be welded on while the rear one seems to be an
integral part of the sump casting.
My problem is that the lower left corner of this interferes with my
mount (but not by much).
My options are to rework the mount (ouch) or take a bevel cut on the
boss but I have no idea how much material is available. This cut would
be about from the inside edge of the threaded hole at about 45 degrees
to the left edge and bottom edge of the boss tapering outward so as not
to go into the sump body.
Does anyone have experience with this.
Thanks

The B1B was an updraft. Call Ken at LyCon and ask him. 559-651-1070
