Hi All,

I'm in need of some educating. Just picked up a Wolf Rod gear mod, for an O-320-A2B (Standard), Oil pickups etc in the bottom of the sump and Conical mounts. All mounted on a little S1-C

The new additions(Rod Gear attach) to the Mount frame foul on the rear cylinder induction outlets on the sump (wasn't advised this would be an issue).

So how many different Lyc O-320 Sumps are there? and who has an O-320 with the Rod gear mod that works?

Our options are:
1. Cold Air induction and hack off fouling protrusions from sump
2. Different Sump and Accessory Case(is this really required?)
3. New engine
4. New Frame and give up on rod gear and sell kit.

Thanks in advance
John
