Article & OH

Bush's article is tops! I agree with Ernie. This should be mandatory reading for anyone thinking about OH's. I I am still running one of my enginers over 1200 past TBO. It is a turbo charged engine TSIO-360-CB. I have replaced a couple of cylinders and two turbos. Only failure I had with that engine was a broken stud that holds the rocker arm in place and that was in one of the new cylinders with about 200 hours time on it. BTW, that happened returning back from our May Bahama Skymaster meeting over Georga. Landed at Athens and after a good fix with one of the local FBO's on a Sunday, I was back in the air in three hours. Herb and Larry was with me.
