Yep but I’m sure they have info either way

I’m surprised no one commented. There’s a continental builder’s group on Facebook. Check there as well. Im interested in knowing for the 470/520 good places for the internals. God knows the prices are crazy as of late.

Or call Russ at Ducarra online.

Just get the one Schmidt sells you’ll be happy!

Harbor freights compressor works fine. Ask me how I know?😂🤦🏼‍♂️😎

Doesn’t hurt that the humidity is low and cool temps, check it on a mid 80’s to 90’s day. My GPU runs in the 160’s usually and below on cool nights.

Check the classifieds! Guy James Shiver has all kinds of parts for the GpU and other continental stuff. Solid guy!

I believe ya! I just love hearing seeing an awesome plan come together! Especially after all that hard work and great posts, I’m in standstill on a 470 ac rebuild to 520, just to much going on deer season kicking in Ga, kid in college first year and the gpu still runs great that’s gonna get...

Post a video!😎

Looks like a o-300 to me. Looks. Check top thread on Continental manuals for more info.

Look at the manuals above your post for Continental and GPUs, and or contact J. Fenner via PM or I’m sure he will chime in eventually. Wealth of knowledge.

Go to the Classifieds the ground power parts advertisement, James is solid, contact him to see what he has. I have bought pistons from him. Good luck

7.99 at rural king, a buddy just bought it yesterday near Lake Wales, bought Phillips a month ago at Schmidt for 85/case. And recently here in Broward Advanced Auti has it back in stock, $9.09 after discount and tax included online order pickup in store. Oil at Schmidt will be going up on next...

From J. Fenner, use in a 220 gpu.

Get a hold of Russ at Ducarra Aviation online. Or the ad in the classified with all the cylinders, call him see what he has or look at some e185 pistons rings. Good luck.

Well I’ve seen the question a few times with no real answer. It’s not npt. It’s straight cut 3/4” 16 threads. Amazon CCCP central has them for 10$. I had to bush fix a old dodge plug brazed to 3/4” 16 straight thread for emergency to get running ended up working perfectly. Hope this helps...
