Just wondering if it was mandantory for an experimental as was
stated. Yes would be a good idea to take advantage of Lycomings assistance.
No need to flirt with disaster.

The Van’s engines are Lycoming certified engines directly from the factory.

Thanks Rhonda, I was sort of trying to be rhetorical on this comment...I'm sure Van's are a Lyca as who else would build a Lyca and be sold as a Lyca except the folks in Williamsport...but the parts come from the subcontractors and one needs to know more about the various major engine parts, than just who the seller was on the main name plate.
I know my buddy recently replaced his cylinders--with ECI Titans...the paper work arrived and ECI had all kinds of errors in the paper work as to the numbers etc...they had sent this out to many repair stations who have similar the repairs...the A&P noticed the problem, discussed it with the FSDO, they took it up with ECI and now ECI is making correction on the Titans...that's only a paper problem. But before a lot of folks on here get thinking "it experimental" so I'm OK...you'd hate to be sitting in the weeds upside down on fire and thinking: hey that crank was ok when it went bust because after all it's an experimental engine and I, with that repairman's licenses, said so...there potentially, may be some really poor cranks out there...IMHO.
