I am building a -7a (std fuse/QB wings) and am starting to look at engines and have a few questions. Please forgive my ignorance about engines. I am considering a Lycoming XIO-360-A1B6 through Vans. As I understand it the ?I? in IO means that the engine is fuel injected. Does that mean that it comes complete with a fuel injection system? If so, what system does Lycoming use? Also, I understand that if using a FI engine the standard fuel pump from Vans is replaced by two boost pumps (located in the wing roots), are these pumps included with the engine or bought separately?
If I decide to go with a clone like Superior, same questions ? do these components generally come with the engine or are they purchased separately?
