I have an O-320-D1F from Lancair and the governor is in the front. The D1F has dynafocal type 1 engine mounts, the A1A has different mounts. What kind of engine mounts does your short Lancair mount require. You probably should look at the "Certificated Aircraft Engines" publication number SSB-204 dated February 2004 by Lycoming. You can find this document at:

An MT electric constant speed prop might be a consideration.

I would like to have many things on my plane but I have to always remind myself: "You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.".

My 320 has the short engine mount which required the dog bowl cut into the firewall to allow room for the prop governor.

Terrence asks:


Has anyone converted a 320 from fixed pitch to constant speed props?
If so, what's needed?


The Lycoming publication is Service Instruction 1435.
I didn't find it online.
