I wrote several weeks ago about the interference between Superior's O320
carb and the 9A's lower cowl. The planned fix from Superior is to swap
out the longer carb with a shorter one. Superior has been telling me
that the testing of the new carb keeps getting bumped. They supposedly
were finally able to test it last week, but the EGT's varied by as much
as 300 degrees. According to the Superior rep, they have ordered
another carb to test, but may have to test several before they get
acceptable test results.

This news is very disappointing to me, as I was hoping to fly to
Sun-n-Fun in April. The good news is that I'll have a 9-hour drive to
stew about having to drive and to wonder if Aerosport wouldn't have been
a better choice.

Daniel,

So I take it Superior is using a non-standard O-320 carburetor? Have you
thought about ordering an RV-7A O-360 lower cowl? I had a similar problem...
discovered that my SilverHawk FI servo is taller than an O-320 carb
necessitating a lower cowl with the O-360 scoop. Full story...
