Hey guys- Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on mounting an o-320 B2A on an RV-6. Is there any modification required being that it is a conical mount?
Thanks-
Alex

Alex,
Welcome to the VAF forum!
Van's sells conical mounts, just order one with your FWF kit. When ordering your "isolation dampeners" AKA mounts, order good ones (typically Lord mounts). I had the solid rubber ones on my engine and in 250 hours they sagged almost a half inch and needed replacing. So, I replaced the entire engine, mount, cowling, prop, and a few other small parts.
However, if you are going to major the engine, it can be converted to a Dynafocal mount for around $250.
