67 m20F chump Posted July 16, 2023 Report Posted July 16, 2023 With that much time on the motor and that you are putting cylinders on it why not do an O/H now? I never had a turbo so thats why I ask.

I never had a turbo so thats why I ask. This engine has now had 5/6 of a "top overhaul" in the past couple years (5 out of 6 cylinders overhauled)...the crankshaft and camshaft are still looking good. I considered doing a major overhaul last year, but there were parts availability problems and delays at that time, not sure if that is still the case. Maybe next year...
cliffy Posted July 24, 2023 Report Posted July 24, 2023 Saw a valve on a Twin Comanche tulip broken the same way Only lightly touched the piston top twice Saw a brand new C 206 (60 hrs) with detonation damage just like shown It was pilot error on climb out mixture setting that did it.
