(Carlos Hernandez) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 02:31:45 PM PST US From: Carlos Hernandez Subject: LycomingEngines-List: Which O-320 to replace my O-290? Hello, Well after starting my condition inspection on our PL-1 this weekend, we found that 3 of the 4 jugs are below 60/80 on the compression test. We have an 125 hp O-290-G on a conical mount and a fixed pitch prop. We would like to replace this engine with a 150 hp O-320-XXX. We're looking to keep this as simple as possible so we want to do a replacement without redoing the mount, cowling and baffles if possible. I am not an engine guy but I have done a little reading in the types of 320's out there, but there is entirely to much information for me to understand with out some direction from others that know a lot more than me. Thank for your help! Carlos in Arizona -- Carlos Hernandez Structural Engineers Company 2963 W.

Carlos, I'm interested in an O-290 for an upgrade to my 7ECA Champ. If you decide to replace your engine and want to sell your O-290 please give me a call. I'm local, my plane is at CHD. My number is 480.326.2172.
