"Hi Andy. I’ve not received to data pack yet on the 90 Franklin install. Actually I made a error on the engine I’m overhauling for my FP 65. It is actually a 80 hp with starter and generator. I’m hoping to use your data as the basis…"
"I’ll scan the data pack and email it to you, Doug. You use the 65 engine mount and use a 65 accessory case on the 90: no electrical will fit ahead of the firewall, just the two mags. With a Marvel MA-2 carb, you have mixture…"
"Andy I have a 41 fp65 that I plan to have flying summer 2021. I see you have a Franklin 90 in yours with a one time arc. I just bought a 90 with starter and gen. It will be overhauled to new specs this winter. Can I please get a copy of your STC. It…"

I’ll scan the data pack and email it to you, Doug. You use the 65 engine mount and use a 65 accessory case on the 90: no electrical will fit ahead of the firewall, just the two mags. With a Marvel MA-2 carb, you have mixture control, so you can lean & cruise about 95 at 2050 rpm, burning 3 gph (Stromberg equipped engines can’t do thar. To get enough carb heat, you run cold air thru one heat muff, run that heated air thru the other heat muff, then into the carb airbox. Prop is a 72-49, like a Stinson 10A uses.
