IO360 Sump

Morning all I'm after some help trying to source an LW13864 sump to convert my IO360-C1C6 to forward facing induction. I can't find one (other than new) in the UK. I have e-mailed Preferred Airparts and Texas Air Salvage, but can anyone help with any other contacts? A new sump is $6K so I really wan...

Hi Ian

With your sump change, do you know what designation your engine has become? I think the UK authority need to know what my engine will be after the sump change.

IO-360 Baffle Kit Instructions

No instructions came with the kit and Vans keep giving me instructions which state 'O-360 ONLY' on them!! My engine is angle valve in case that is ...

Thanks for the advice.....think I'll opt for buying the sump rather than following your route!

Sorry to resurrect this rather old thread but confusion is creeping in again as I finally get to the stage of fitting the engine!! Will a C1-C6 fit an RV8? I've been looking through the Lycoming document and to my non-engineer brain its rather confusing. If a C1 C6 is suitable then great, otherwise ...

I had a few e-mails ignored by them (maybe went to junk mail? Who knows) and a few had quite a slow response.

Hopefully they'll be in touch. I'm in the Middle East and not back in the UK until July 5th...if you're still having trouble I'll be happy to call them for you then.

Hi Bob; thanks for the post. I found out this morning that he's bought a Slingsby Firefly instead! Luckily its the 260 so has a bit of 'oomph'!

MN; family are from North Wales....correct flag! ;)

Many thanks; I went with the Airflow pump; Vans store says installation kit not needed if you have a pre-punched '8, which mine is. Hope it comes with some fittings! Anyhow, it worked out far cheaper!! I will still get the Andair selector though. Thanks for all the help guys!

Thanks Dave

Hadn't realised the Vans supplied one was the airflow model! Shows how closely I read the description!!!! :o

Will decide over the next few days which to order. :)

Thanks again

Just looked at the Airflow site...there isn't much info that I can see about the fuel pump packages.....do you have details of what you fitted Dave please?

Many thanks :)
