Hi
I am looking at a RV6A with a Lycoming O-320-H2AD. Engine has est. TT 2400 SMOH 296.5, removed from a plane, had 100 hrs service completed, bench run and then prepared and detailed for shipping by Shilon Aviation Centre in 2008. New owner fitted it with Ly-Com Cylinders and 10.5:1 Comp Ratio and completed 150 hrs in the RV6. Not sure at this time if the crank is hollow type but it has fixed pitch prop fitted.
What are the Gotchas with this engine type - should i worry about the TT hrs and i believe there is something to do with Dual Mag types and certain spark plugs
Sound advice need to establish purchase of the plane or not.
Thanks
Bryan
