Difference in O-360 STC's
What are the differences in the various STC's for the O-360 or are they pretty much all the same but just cover different O-360 models?

LOTS... It would take me a while to compile it all..
Mainly exhaust systems, fuel systems, props, engine models and engine mounts. Currently, there is NO approval for tri gear models, all have to be tailwheel conversion. Trimmers requires his fuel system and his also states that NO constant speed props are to be used. Univair uses an exhaust system that sticks out the lower cowl. Mine is limited to the 0-360-A1P. Rubbert I'm not sure about, I do know his includes Conical mount engines though. That's just what I can think of off the top.

I guess it's good I'm not in a hurry, then. I usually have to ruminate on things for a few years before I do them, and it looks like this will take some study, although everything will probably be different by the time I'm ready to pull the trigger.

Google this: "O-360 180 hp conversion site:shortwingpipers.org"

From memory Univair's STC is basically a Cherokee 180 firewall forward I believe. Then you have Steve's Aircraft and Eddie Trimmer's.
