There is no requirement to remove the data plate or stop calling it a Conti
nental. You actually have several options. If you can find an A&P who will
supervise and sign off the work you do you can do that. If you want to perf
orm the work without supervision then you make an engine log entry that it
was built or experimental use. "Overhaul" has a specific meaning to the FAA
and you should not put that in the log unless you meet the FAA requirement
s for an overhaul. The requirement for phase 1 is a certified design=2C the
experimental engines and "kits" supplied by the engine manufactures are ro
utinely given the 25 phase 1.
If anyone tells you the data plate needs to be removed=2C ask them politely
which FAA regulation requires that (there isn't one).
