Thank you for your reply.
We had our 0145 B2 rebuilt a few years ago. My father did mention how the cylinders on the Continental engine are independent of the crankcase, which would make them much easier to service.

Thank you for your welcome!
My father purchased his LP65 disassembled in 1985. This is the only plane that he has ever owned. Although he loves planes and flying, he has not piloted a plane in years. It is my hope that he and I can…"
