SOLD!! Owned for last 20 years always hangered at O69 (Petaluma, CA). This is an excellent airplane with many speed modifications and classic instruments with some new digital and 4 cylinder engine monitor with fuel flow. We’ve used this airplane for personal use along with getting and IFR rating. Flew IFR pretty constantly 10 years back but mission changed so stopped getting IFR certifications. Original paint and interior with plastics repainted and ceiling replaced. Classic 6 pack instrument panel with AV30C and vac. AI. Original Brittain B6 3-axis autopilot holds altitude and set course but struggles to track VOR needle. Approximately $6,250 in speed mods make it near a M20J in performance. While the engine is mid-time SMOH, it was rebuilt just 690 hours ago due to a cracked case. Additionally, less than 100 STOH (full top overhaul - 4 cylinders in 2022 -- New Scimitar propeller, hub and spinner in 2023). There are many years left on this engine! Over the last 20+ years, we’ve focused on making it a solid mechanical aircraft we could trust with our family of 4. I’ve wrestled with selling over the last few years but can’t justify keeping it as we are not flying as much now that the kids have left home and we don’t have any long distance flight missions for a 4 passenger aircraft. This has been a solid aircraft and family member that is very difficult to let go.

I've embarked on a panel-redo, and I've hit a snag and need some advice. My 67C had a shotgun panel that featured an EGT gauge and 4-cyl selector right in the middle of the panel. I plan to finish my IR this year, and want a six-pack instrument arrangement. The a/c has a Radair 4-cyl EGT with a single gauge and a selector switch. The panel mount rotary switch is 2-inches in diameter, about 2-1/4" dia. with wires attached. It is in the middle of the photo resting atop the TC. The single-channel EGT gauge itself is just below the AH. Re-designing the panel to have a six-pack arrangement, with CDI and Dynon 2 EFIS between the six-pack and radio stack, the 2-1/4" EGT gauge must go to the left side below the key/master sw. There is no place left for that huge selector switch because of its 2" diameter. The switch is made by Shallco. I also include a diagram of the new layout. Any suggestions? Does anyone have a smaller switch idea? I assume that the red/yellow wires on the EGT are the dissimilar thermocouple wires and I need to be careful about cold junction error when selecting a switch. I have been scouring the interwebs looking for smaller switches, but have not had any luck. It seems that this calls for a 2-pole, 2-deck, 4 position switch. Son #1 has access to a water-jet cutter and he is going to be cutting the new panel next week. :-)

hi everyone I own 67 M20F it recently went down for annual and the flange for the induction tube was damaged, so I contacted Lycoming and they sent me a new pipe which superseded the previous part. this new tube appears to long. Any tips for installation, modifications, etc thanks

Anyone know the part number for the metal can and shroud that go over the fuel pump and where you can buy one?
