This is currently on ebay. I sopke with Van's and they said it should work for an -8, but there may be issues with the sump as it's set up for a retractable gear in the 172RG.
Not knowing alot about engines, would this work for an -8? Or is it too tired? The cylinders are an issue (can't be honed) and I'm thinking it may be worth the core?
Here are the details. Any thoughts would/input be appreciated!
This is a Lycoming O-360-F1A6 Engine that is currently up for auction. Engine was previously installed on a Cessna 172RG. S/N of the engine is L-28081-36A. Engine did NOT suffer a prop strike. Fresh take off...
