copies of a 337 for the 0-300B

Does anyone have copies of previous field approvals for installing the 0-300B engine? This would really help my case with the FAA for getting this approved. The more proof I have the easier it will be. If so please send them to. Doug Lords 607 S. Belle Arbor Dr Idaho Falls, Id 83401 or e-mail them t...

prop to use

Here is another great question. I put on a McCauley DM 7653 standard prop, it bolted up just fine, and had the proper thread engagement. Does anyone see a problem with this?

Continental 0-300B

Recently I purchased a engine from a wrecked 1948 170 to be used on our 1952 170B. The engine a proped substained no damage. The Type Certificate Data sheet says that the engine should be a 0-300A. The only difference between the 0-300A and the 0-300B is that the 0-300B is setup for provisions so th...

continental 0-300B fuel pump

We just purchased a 0-300B that is going to go on our 170B project. The engine came off of a 170. The engine has a external fuel pump at the front R/H side (aft looking FWD). Why would there be a mechanical fuel pump on a carburated engine?

use of 172 wings

Do 1965 cessna 172F wings fit on a 1952 cessna 170B. I know that the early 100 series wings were all the same, but when did they change? I have a chance to by wings from a 1965 172F and a 1967 172H and was going to put them on my 170B. Just need to know if they will work
