I plan to install an IO-360 into a Falco.

The ring has to fit the engine. Type 1 is by far the most common; type 2 was used on a few twins that had extended hub props to streamline the engine nacelles better. The difference is the point within the engine where the angles of the mounting bolts converge to a point. It's supposed to be at the cg of the engine/prop assembly. The 'ears' on the engine are cut differently for the type 1 & type 2 mounts. If you're buying a used engine, you *might* stumble upon an engine that came off a twin with type 2 ears, but they are relatively rare. If you're buying new, you'd probably have to beg to get one. As an example of how rare they are, Van's A/C no longer supplies type 2 mounts for their kits, & they probably sell more Lyc powered kits than all the other kit makers combined. Does that help?
