    Ouch - I hate to see stuff like this go down. I got my butt bit on the Lycoming crankshaft recall on my Cessna 182 - Cost me $8-10K. The general trend now seems to be for the big guys to put the burden on the owner operator. I bought a Mattituck Red/gold Engine from the guys in New York. It is still sitting in the box. These engines are made from Lycoming parts unless otherwise specified. I agonized and paid a lot of bucks extra as opposed to getting an overhauled engine. It is obviously no guarantee of not getting a S/B from hell like this, but it definitely increases the comfort zone. They always have a deal at OSH with free freight. For those sitting on the fence, you might want to consider talking with Mahlon at OSH. -------- OSH '08 or Bust (busted) be there in &quot;09 Q/B Kit - exited cabin top/door purgatory Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=184533#184533

    Makes me glad I bought a new certified Lycoming from Vans back when they were cheaper. Even then I noticed an anomaly in the oil sump casting and Lycoming agreed to replace the sump. They sent a guy with parts and tools to replace it in my garage; It was already mounted to the airframe; I assisted and we had the sump changed in about three hours. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of AirMike Sent: Friday, May 23, 2008 9:23 AM Subject: RV10-List: Re: ECI MSD No.08-1 Ouch - I hate to see stuff like this go down.

    Subject: How to Tell if You have ECI/Superior Cylinders
    From: "Rhonda Bewley" <Rhonda@bpaengines.com>
    I've had a few inquiries about whether or not customers' engines may be affected by the proposed Superior/ECI service bulletins. Some of you may not know which types of cylinders were used on your engine. If your engine builder provided you with a detailed parts list, you should be able to distinguish which manufacturer made your cylinders by reviewing the nomenclature. ECI Lycoming replacement cylinders have an AEL in front of them, and Superior Lycoming replacement cylinders have an SL. If you have purchased a kit engine from BPE, only Lycoming OEM cylinders were used. If your engine builder did not provide you a detailed parts list, you can easily identify which cylinders you have by looking at the rocker box boss above the exhaust port for the AEL, SL or Millenium insignia. Hope this information is helpful to at least some of you! Everyone have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend! Rhonda Barrett-Bewley Barrett Precision Engines, Inc. 2870-B N. Sheridan Rd.

    Subject: Elevators
    Please help. I've attached the elevators to the horiz stab and adjusted to have a roughly even gap at the trailing edge of the stab. Height wise though there is a 3/16" difference between the left and right elevator horns. Anyone else have this issue? Is there a fix or is this a common misalignment? Just drill away and live with the difference? Thanks in advance. Do not archive Mike Doble Builder 40691 Working on my tail..... Waukesha, Wisconsin

    Subject: Re: Elevators
    In my experience it is not at all uncommon to have the horns not exactly lined up. I think it's just an issue of the welds and lack of accuracy there. I have seen some that line up almost perfectly and some that are off by as much as 10 degrees, probably. Is this what you are referring to? do not archive Jesse Saint Saint Aviation, Inc. jesse@saintaviation.com Cell: 352-427-0285 Fax: 815-377-3694

    Mike, I believe in Section 11-3, it specifically refers to the horns not being aligned and has you go through a procedure to drill them "as is" while in the trail position.
