Io-540-c4b5-crated.jpg Lycoming IO-540-C4B5 Serial #: L-15798-48 Parallel valve, narrow deck.

Rebuild

I have rebuilt this core engine after it suffered a prop strike during a gear-up landing in a Piper Aztec in 2014. Nearly every component of the bottom end was in good serviceable condition save for the crankshaft, which was cranked at an oil cross tube. Replacement crankshaft is from a O-540-F1A5 out of a Robinson R-44.

This has been the most thorough and complete task of the Bearhawk build thus far.
