Maybe.

I just picked up what looks like a really nice converted O290G. It was cheap, I wanted it for spare parts for the Spezio mainly cylinders. Anyway, I have had zero luck selling my Acroduster 2 air frame. In retrospect I should have rebuilt it's IO320..... Oh well...... So "IF" this engine looks ok inside after I take it apart my plan is to machine the case for O320 cylinders. I'm also going to make a new longer/correct mount.

Ideally I'd like 4 narrow deck take-off cylinders with pistons that I can install and fly/try. High time run-out fine. Once-IF I confirm engine will be satisfactory I'll have them OH'ed. Of coarse other cylinders will be considered.

I don't want to commit until I confirm internal condition of the engine but OTOH seldom pass up a really good deal.:)

(Of coarse my last really good deal was that pile of scrap metal HIO360)

So what do you have in the corner someplace

Thanks,

Jack
