The E2G is listed as having the O-235 front main bearing.  Not having

had an O-235 apart before, what does this mean?  Is the bearing

smaller, shorter, no provision for hydraulic prop control?  What makes

this different?



I have this engine in my RV-4 and I'm pulling the engine to fix some

nuisance oil leaks and am debating a few additional "fixes".  I am

wondering if this bearing is not substantial enough for a lot of

aerobatics.



Thanks in advance.

Hi Mike,



I worked with a Mike McKee.   I had to double-take.   



I would suggest calling Ken Tunnell at LyCon and picking his brain.   If he 

can give you Steve Mahelek phone number, he could probably answer you also.   

the LyCon number is (559) 651-1070.   Catch him first thing in the morning or 

you'll never catch him off the phone.
