Carl-- I used two nylon pullies under my seats and nylon/teflon fairleads
on the
fuse sides near where the cables exit the fuselage.

I'm looking around for a wood or metal tractor type prop for my winter Piete project,
using a Lycosaur 0-235. Anybody who hasn't converted their dreams into
a lovely clock, contact me off line.
Thanks-Gordon Bowen

Mine says:
Less Oil -7.2 -27.00 194.40
In the bottom left corner of this page it says: Revised 1-19-87
I can't find anywhere in the front of the book, or on the cover, where it
says what printing it is.

Carl,
I bought a Dan Price head, and found the quality very good. These products
have been around for awhile, so the bugs are probably all worked out. When I
used this higher compression head, I had to use two head gaskets, because the
tops of the pistons protruded up past the deck of the block. This was
probably
due to the fact that the top of my block had probably been surfaced ground at
some point in it's life. The 6:1 head is machined flat, with dished out room
just in the area where the valves stick up. I ran, and flew the plane in
this configuration for maybe 10 hrs, but then went back to the stock cast
iron
head, and one head gasket. The main reason I went back to the cast iron head
was for W & B reasons. I could not tell any difference in performance
between
the higher 6:1 head, and the stock 4.8:1 head. I used only one Wico magneto,
driven off the crank the way the plans show.
I can't see any problems with the different size plugs, but you may have
to experiment with the heat range of the plugs. It seemed like my Model A
plugs didn't last very long. I would have trouble starting the engine,
change
the plugs, and it would start right up.
