[quote]I have located an IO-540-M1B5D. It has several aspects that need to be changed to make it suitable for an RV-10. It has up exhaust, rear air intake, and the dual mag setup but my plan was to get a serviceable case and crank and then put new cylinder assemblies on it. I am assuming I can then get the correct sump to move the air intake forward and maybe even a different accessory cover to allow separate mags. If the case and crank are good, this might be a pretty good deal since there is a Hartzell 3 blade included. Has anyone had any success with changing sumps and/or accessory drive covers on a similar engine?Albert GardnerYuma, AZ [b]

I've heard that Barrett Precision Engines has done this. They have a web site.

BPE has a cold air induction system for the IO-540 which replaces the
old sump and intake manifolds.
