Looking for some expert advice: I have a friend who is 6' 5" and would like to get a 170. As he sits in my original seat set up its tight for him both Vertically and horizontally . What are the legal options to get more headroom or legroom? Are there other members who face this problem? Thanks ...

Fearless,
On page 16-9, figure 16-3 of the 100 series service manual you can find a template for the pitot tube contour.
Although it refers to the 172-175 models, it works well for the 170 also, I found it useful on my plane. Pm me your email and I can send you a copy if you need.
Wes

I think I have the exact one you need, nos for early 170, I will PM you.

Thanks George, I feel better! We were really excited when we ran across this engine since it was a first run,
we just need to put together a couple of missing items.

I have the firewall mounted oil filter system and have had no problems, its a slick installation and filter change is a snap.

In regard to your second question, I have understood that if you replaced an item on the engine, such as a EGT Probe or Cylinder Temp Probe ie: any item attached to the engine, that would require a engine logbook entry. However if you change an instrument associated to the operation of that engine, ...

Gary,

Thanks for that information and chart! Its greatly appreciated!

Membership: Would anyone be able to confirm the part numbers for the brake disc used in the conversion kit for the B model? The STC gives the conversion kit number 199-46, which indicates the use of the 30-63A brake and 40-97A wheels, but fails to mention the brake disc. The Cleveland Technician gui...

Gahorn,

Yep, that is the situation.....it has not been weight in years and all the additions apply, thanks, that will help me figure out some of the questions,
but I agree it time to weight the plane, I like to know exactly where I stand. I'm just too picky I guess
Wes

Blue4,

I am trying to update the the equipment list with all the items that had been installed and not documented very well, I may just have to have the aircraft
reweighed.

Wes

Thanks John, I was hoping that someone had a sheet set up to make it more precise.
