Hi all:
I have an O-320 B2B that I'm starting to get ready for my RV-9A. I have a couple of questions:
1-I don't have a vacuum pump. Where can I get a 60430 Vacuum Pump Cover for a reasonable price? I can probably make one if I had to.
2-I removed the studs that are there to mount the vacuum pump and now it looks like I didn't need to. The parts manual shows the 61098 Vacuum Pump adapter in place with the Vacuum Pump cover over top of that. They also show 4 hokey spacers that fit over the studs to make them work with the cover. Does anybody see any problem with leaving the studs out and installing the plate directly to the engine with bolts?
3-I'm not using the tach drive. What's a good way to cap this? I don't see a cap listed in the parts manual.
Thanks!
