  2. mine was about $7k for two sides. Included some avionics installation. It was a complete rewire. I did none of the work myself. All done by Higginsville Avionics in Higginsville Missouri.

    Modifications

    N6440U changed to N62DX
  4. My Modification, paint and interior project is now complete. Finally!
  5. I Just replaced the tac. Got one from Aircraft Spruce
  6. I had mine recently painted at Mozleys at KOJC in Olathe Kansas. They did a good job for $8000
  7. I recently reviewed Lycoming manuals on this issue and they do seem to look favorably on LOP operations.
  8. I replaced mine about 3 months ago. The difference was about 1". Hard to believe but they were dated 1975.
  9. I also sent you an e-mail. Thanks in advance for the information and pictures. Robert Gaines
  10. If Lycoming actually concealed known defects do you really want tort reform? First, tHe article did not state that the plane was overloaded. It stated the plane was near its maximum weight. Second, the jury found that the crash was caused by a faulty carberator - therefore even if the plane was overloaded that possible fact did not cause the crash. Third, the jury apparenty found that Lycoming concealed a known defect. For the moment assume that Lycoming did conceal the defect. If this is true why ask for "tort reform" to protect Lycoming? Finally, the court may reduce the jury award depending on the circumstances.
  11. I would love to do this modification but there is no reasonably priced STC for this as far as I know. I believe LASAR will modify the bench seat but it is around $1800 as I recall.
  12. The alternator is better than the generator. My battery remains fully charged now where before I always had a problem keeping it charged enough for winter starts.
