Another IO360 with hosed Lifters/CAM

[jetdriven]

If you get a new Lycoming case you can put roller lifters in it. Then you have the newest technology without having to pay the factory overhaul premium which is we know that’s expensive

Oh, and I had a busted camshaft on an 0360, but I think the prop strike might have had something to do with it.

Nope, you’re good! I like the wit!

Going with the new case from superior...

Yes, but Jewell has been great. Still I gotta say:

This is where a field overhaul exceeds the cost of a factory engine.  Sorry to hear.

Good choice on the new case. 

Can’t stand Divco. I’ve had two cases have cracks from them. 

Good luck during the build!! It’ll all be ok!

I am having some other work done that totals out the 23K, including airframe annual and replacing nose gear due to being bent by towing (again)

Amazing the difference between IO-360 models and the prices. A3B6 is twice that.
