I recently bought a Lycoming engine, that is in effect an O-360-A1A engine. (It is actually a YO-360-EXP-51)
It is being set up with an EFII System-32, so it will soon become an IO-360.
I am trying to buy a Superior Cold Air Sump for it, and reached out to Aircraft Spruce to get the correct part#. They answered with "you would need the 08-12105-1 for the angle valve engine".
My problem is that it isn't an angle valve, it is a parallel valve. I tried twice to confirm with Spruce that this was still the correct part number, but I stopped getting email replies from them. I tried calling the person directly and left a voicemail, but again, got no reply. So now 6 weeks later, and I am about to give up.
Can anyone here tell me if that is the right part for a parallel valve 360, or if not, what the correct part# is? Is there someone other than Spruce that I should be getting this from? (I'm in San Diego)
Thanks in advance for any help.
