It was a tight fit, though. Don't alter the spacing of the spars, because this would alter the cabane struts, and the attachments to the fuselage, and the landing gear. Don't alter the height of the spar, either, as this will weaken the wing (ya just never know when ya might hit some turbulance), and don't noch the top cap strip on the ribs, either. This would cause a weak point in the rib. I think the best way is to alter your rib jig slightly, to accept the height of the spar.Chuck G.Wichita KSps See y'all at the Annual Pietenpol Fly-In, at Benton Airpark, on Saturday, Sept. 9________________________________________________________________________________

Barry,I was told that the pistons are different, and you have to check theconnecting rods for an oil hole in the rod bearing ( where it rides on thecrank). The newer ones had the hole, I guess, to take the added pounding.My mentor told me that if you have to replace pistons anyway, go for the75's. But to throw away good 65 pistons and put in 75 pistons, that youwon't see that much of a difference.I got all my Continental parts from a place in California. Can look up thename.
