Default FAB Carb Plate
Anyone have the part # for the upper FAB plate that mounts to the bottom of the carburetor?

O-320/ MA4SPA

Or, if anyone has a spare laying around, in original condition,,??

Thanks!

My logbook shows VA-130-C (Air Filter to carburetor mounting plate) was replaced some time ago.

Van's "The List" shows a VA-130-C1 for $22.

I will check my spares in the hangar to see if I have one.

This is what I have in my hangar.



I used one like this to have a machinist friend make me one out of titanium.
