- I found this on a web page. When an 0-200 is installed in place of a C-85, the lord mounts are a compromise and the engine is moved 1/2 inch forward.
- I wonder if these "cones" make it possible to use the standard C-75-85 engine mounts. I expect the 337 might be a bit of a challenge.

Denis- You may pass along that The Luscombe
people use those cone inserts to install O-200's on C-85 mounts, so they may
have them made up and some sort of paperwork available. I know when I was flying
a Luscombe they published detailed plans on how to make the cones in the
newsletter and that several guys were flying with O-200's installed. Now that
The Luscombe Foundation is trying to go back into production and are rebuilding
Luscombes, perhaps they would be a source for those cones. I could probably dig
up that old newsletter as well if necessary to see a 1-A fly again. Terry

(Editor says... Mark Holliday email'd Jim Montague who email'd me to say that
the mount adapters are $294. Call 650-493-6916 and ask for
Ralph.)
