In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web.

I have a stock induction on a AEIO-360-a1e and thinking about going cold induction. Can you guys answer my quests?

1. does it make sense? not sure how "hot" is the stock induction

2. how much weight can it save?

3. if anybody has done it, how close is the geometry of some after-market
cold sumps comparing to Lycoming's horizontal sump? How many modification should I expect to make to the other parts of the engine?

thnx
