Just got home with my RV6-A kit (30% finished) a month ago and got a Lycoming O320-E2D engine with it. My local A & P mechanic told me that it will probably need to have some pretty expensive upgrades because it came out of a Cessna 172 and the fuel tanks are gravity fed. I am NOT a mechanic, but can I send pics via e-mail to someone out there and have the rear of my engine looked at to see if it has already been modified? I understand that if it was taken out of a 172 and has not been modified yet, it'll probably be easier and less expensive to sell this engine and buy an engine set up for my RV6-A (in a couple of years when I get it ready to fly) If you can help me with this, feel free to call me, 270-393-0115 (my office) or e-mail me at [email protected]
