The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. 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. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

greetings all, I have another 2 questions I need help with.

1. are there any other tips anyone might have regarding oil pressure for the AEIO320E1B motor in the Bellanca decathlon, we have made very sure that our baffles are sealing well, we have increased airflow by re-inforcing the lower air outlet under the engine to alow max air thru the system, it is definitely temperature related, in ou winter oil press stays in the green (5-30 degrees celcius) but in our summer (30-50 degrees celcius) we struggle with the pressure going into the caution zone..

2. any ideas for a good alternate exhaust system for the AEIO320E1B, something that could give us good performance and is rugged enough to endure our high temp fluctuations and rough airfields.

Thanks
Heiko
