Hi Curt,
Are you talking about an electronic ignition? Is it for an 0-320? Is it a 150
or 160 HP? Can you use auto plugs and gas with this EI even on a 160 HP?
Wayne,
Thanks for the lead on ATC. I've talked to John and am considering an engine
from them. I mentioned it to an EAA technical councilor from Salem Oregon who
said RV builders buy a lot of his engines. He knows of several problems some
builders had with his rebuilds, including an in-flight failure and fire,
resulting in a fatality.
I am not up to speed on remanufactured engines like some of you. Any comments
appreciated.
Do the parts used in the rebuild make a difference in quality? Are the
certified parts better or just more expensive? If the guy has a good
reputation how concerned should I relay be?
