Superior intercylinder baffle interchangeability
 
I have to buy new intercylinder baffles for my freshly rebuilt IO-540-C4B5. The Superiors are nice and shiny and half the price but they don't offer a direct part number replacement.

Aircraft Spruce says my engine is eligible:

But Superior doesn't advertise a direct part number replacement for 72152 and 73975.

Anyone fitted these and are they or are they not useable?

all intercylinder baffles for parallel valve 360's and 540's are the same. It will fit.
good luck, Mahlon

BAFFLES
 
Mahlon is correct they are the same with one small exception! One will have a hole in it for the fuel line from the servo to the MV to run through! You can drill the hole yourself and add a grommet!
