Hi Leon, There might be some 320/360's out there that didn't sag after flying, but I haven't heard of them. I had my engine on the mounts for about the same amount of time as you. Didn't sag at all untill I got some thrust, vibration and heat on it. My guess is that a 3/8 allowance will be pretty safe. Of course, all of this advise is based on LNC2's with 320's and 360's. I know nothing about IV's. What are you building? Bill harrelson@erols.com LNC2 O-320 VA42
