Hercpilot Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 Anyone mod their O-235 conical mount for use with an O-320 upgrade? If so, what needs to be done, specifically to the mount, to accommodate the heavier motor? I am fully aware of the extrusion strengthening requirements.

Drew Swenson Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 I took my mount to Dave Ronneburg. He welded on another support tube to each of the upper 2 biscuits. That---and replacing the upper two extrusions is all I did mounting-wise. Quote
Hercpilot Posted July 11, 2009 Author Posted July 11, 2009 Was that additional support ran horizontally between the upper two mounting lugs? Quote Justin http://web.me.com/hercpilot/Justins_Website/Welcome.html
