Thanks Steve. A couple of people have pointed out that the longer carb probably is used on the O-360, and have suggested possibly using the O-360 cowling. I doubt Vans sells an O-360 cowling for the 9, although one could purchase just the scoop and mold it to the cowl. Thanks everyone for your input. I'm looking forward to receiving the new carburetor and working with an extra 1-1/2" of space.

Yes, it is the MA4SPA that you mentioned. I think that is the normal one yo uwill be pleased to know. Cheers, Steve. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:25:30 AM PST US From: Darrell Reiley Subject: Re: RV-List: RE: RV-List Digest: 6 Msgs - 01/28/07 Yep... the 7 and 9 cowls interchange. If you have a 9 with an 320 engine using AFP fuel injection they will tell you to order the 360 cowl. Darrell --- "Snow, Daniel A." wrote: > > > Thanks Steve.

What have you guys done. No blast tubes, no problems with Slick mags or B&C alternator, but then again, I have a wimpy little O-320, as you well know!

One to the B&C alternator, one to each of the mags and one to the vacuum pump on my -6. Only needed if you care about doing whatever you can to ensure long service life from those components. -- Harry Crosby RV-6 N16CX, 310 hours -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: Bobby Hester > > I'm close to being done, do I need to install blast tube to the mag and > to the alternator?
