From: "Sanders, Andrew P" --> LycomingEngines-List message posted by: "Sanders, Andrew P" Can anyone provide what the permissible diameter dimensions are for the crankshaft "nose" for an O-360-A1A? That is the part that the propeller pilots on, forward of the prop flange. Thanks, Andrew ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 08:37:27 AM PST US Subject: RE: LycomingEngines-List: Crankshaft spec anyone? From: "James Ball" --> LycomingEngines-List message posted by: "James Ball" Pilot 2.250- 2.247 is normal. Anything under that, is due to wear and up to the discretion of the mechanic or repair station as to airworthiness. Out of round max is .002. -----Original Message----- From: owner-lycomingengines-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-lycomingengines-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Sanders, Andrew P Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 10:27 AM Subject: LycomingEngines-List: Crankshaft spec anyone? --> LycomingEngines-List message posted by: "Sanders, Andrew P" --> Can anyone provide what the permissible diameter dimensions are for the crankshaft "nose" for an O-360-A1A?

Converted it to dual electronic ignition and fuel injection. 4 rebuilt 160 hp cylinders were in stalled. After one hour of ground running I was never satisfied with the performance, too much rpm drop (250-300) and compression check wasn't satisfactory. I just bought 4 new TITAN 150 HP cylinder assemblies and a totally new Slick ignition system. My question-For the life of me I can't remember how I lined up the gears on assembly per page Fig 2-7 on page 2-5 of the Lycoming Overhaul Manual. Anyway to check this out with out taking the engine apart? Thank You, Bruce Bell
