After replacing the pad I used a tie wrap to direct oil and primer fuel away. My ex NASCAR mechanic IO 360 200HP rebuilt (jeff@a2z-aviation.com) using his custom designed exhaust system and Hartz els' Blended foil prop, with the engine finally=C2-braking in and=C2- I am showing consistent=C2-226 mph ground speed at six to eight thousand f eet alt. As a side note, in order to clear the the nose wheel assembly I ha d to use a 180 sump on my 200HP wide bank. I found when I filled the sump w ith nine quarts of oil the oil level covered the cylinder oil drain inlets and backed up the oil causing excessive oil consumption and found a six qua rt max ended the high consumption. I used a removed oil sump and learned th e sump itself holds five quarts and adding another quart brings the oil lev el up to six would just clear the crankcase oil drain inlets.=C2- =C2- =C2- -----Original Message----- From: Glasair-List Digest Server Sent: Tue, May 28, 2019 10:30 am Subject: Glasair-List Digest: 0 Msgs - 05/24/19 * ======================== =C2- Online Versions of Today's List Digest Archive ======================== Today's complete Glasair-List Digest can also be found in either of the two Web Links listed below.=C2- The .html file includes the Digest format ted in HTML for viewing with a web browser and features Hyperlinked Indexes and Message Navigation.=C2- The .txt file includes the plain ASCII versio n of the Glasair-List Digest and can be viewed with a generic text editor such as Notepad or with a web browser.
