Awesome! Im also in Southern California. Would love to collaborate!

funny,

I also have a IO540 300 HP, this all started with my airplane running slow.

Airplains says 165 True all day long.

Fastest I've seen is 155.

Myself, Scott stellers and Paul new having been trying to get to the bottom of the issue for awhile.

The airframe has been investigated, on to ...

Many operators have reported finding Front Tire bump/up stop installed backwards making them wear premature and function incorrectly.

Unfortunately, it seems that lazy shops are not using the appropriate method for nose gear axle nut replacement. I’m big on new hardware. Rather than using a cotter pin and nut, shops are using a nyloc for ease of install. Mine was corrected on new tire install.

Good call!

If you read the STC carefully it says to install the mirror to observe BOTH wheels. Unless you Bend the mirror slightly, only the NLG can been seen. I Bent mine about 30 degrees down to accommodate this.

I don’t believe you can, but you can try calling textron?
