Question about the engine mount that comes with the finish kit.
The engine mount ears on the O-540 can be one of two part numbers:
70456
12A19770
It appears that the difference is the size of the engine mount bolt thru
holes in them. The 70456 part is for all O-540 models *except* A1A5 and
A1D5, those two use the other part.
Will either of these work with the finish kit ? Is it just a matter of
using a different size bolt with different engine/cushion/isolator
mounts ? Or is this going to be a problem with the actual engine mount
provided with the vans finish kit ?
Thanks
Ron

The RV-10 mount requires the small hole mounts. If you are ordering a
new engine, then yours will have the small mounts. If you are using a
rebuilt engine or a mid-time engine, there is a chance that it could
come with the large hole mounts. I think some of the -C4B5 engines on
Aztecs used the large mounts. You can pick up the small hole mounts used
serviceable (just make sure they are inspected) or new surplus.

No, I tried making the large-hole mounts work- they won't because they have a different dynafocal angle. Use the small hole mounts (70456) and hardware as Van's uses and save time/ money.

Thanks Kevin and Rhonda -- My confusion stemmed from the O-540 parts
catalog saying that the A1D5 has the 12A19770 mounts - that's the model
number that is stamped on my engine plate. (From an Aztec.)
The good news is that the part number that I just read off of the ears
is 70456.
No action required on my part.
Build on.
