Re: O-200 crank, rods, pistons
I’m not aware of a phone issue. I do hold the STC for the O-200 in our airplanes. My phone is 530 357-5440.

Re: O-200 crank, rods, pistons
We did the STC and the precision carburetor at the same time. It is now a TRUE 90 knot airplane in cruise (71X48) prop at 2400 rpm( courtesy of Maxwell Prop shop of MSP). After 500 + hours in the aircraft, then doing the modification, I can say the takeoff and climb performance was significantly enhanced. I highly recommend this modification. Tracking the fuel burn, 5.03 gph all the time. We operate off 1450 turf at 1300 msl with confidence in the capability of the aircraft. Tom

Re: O-200 crank, rods, pistons
Flew today, i have the c85 with the 0-200 goodies, we were just shy of gross at a comfortable 85mph climb, we were a bit over 500fpm, it was in 30s here so nice cold air, but i assume i could have pulled more maybe had i got a bit steeper say 70 to 75ish climb out...
