>>Has anybody installed the superior
coposite oil sump in a IO 320/360?
Does it fit under the cowling?<<
Christian:--
I have installed the Superior "light-weight" sump on my XP360
engine. It fits under the cowling fine, but it is quite a bit deeper
than the conventional sump and the Lancair exhaust won't work with it.
We built a custom exhaust, with the pipes running between the intake
runners and the sump. Rather complex, a tight fit and overall a PITA.
Had I known what I was getting into I would have put the standard sump
and exhaust on the engine.
