| Subject: | IO-360 converted to carbureted |
Does anyone have experience with a 200HP IO-360 that was converted to
carburetor fuel system?
It sounds like the only change was to fuel delivery, i.e., the higher
compression pistons, 200HP sump and intakes were used. FI was removed
and carb installed.
Other than susceptability for carb ice, are there any other
disadvantages to this swap? Seems like the engine should still make 200
HP if the installed carb is not a flow restriction.
Thanks,
Larry

Why would you want to go backwards from the advantages of FI to Carb?

Having had FI and carb engines, I would always rather have the FI system.
