Lycoming Experimental"no Spill" 90 Deg. Oil Filter Retrofit on 2040-parts.com

No engine component has the potential to extend service life as dramatically as the addition of a full flow filter v. the standard oil screen.  Tear down inspection of engines with and without filters (at TBO) consistently shows that more internal hardware remains within service limits on engines with filters. 

 This Experimental 90 Degree oil filter kit is applicable to  all fixed wing Lycoming engines (O-235 through IO-720) with two fully independent magnetos (even engines from the early 1950's with separate oil cooler adapters). 

   Identical to our STD'd product w/o FAA paperwork and markings.  Eliminates oil spills when making filter changes without requiring separate drain connections.  Just follow the simple procedure in the installation manual, and not one drop  will be spilled.   Fits most every aircraft, even those with only enough room for an oil screen housing.  Extends engine life over oil screen mesh used on many engines.  Improves access between back of engine and firewall,  improves oil filter accessibility.  Eliminate your oil screen and get real filtration on these expensive engines.  This is the same premium product sold through Aircraft Spruce, Van's Aircraft, Chief Aircraft, Wag Aero, Stoddard's Aircraft Parts, and other major general aviation parts houses.  

New manufacture from CASPER LABS, INC.  AS9100:2001/ISO9001:2000 certified precision investment casting (includes X-ray and Dye penetrant inspection) assures + or -.005 inch dimensional accuracy as cast. This process produces parts far superior to Lycoming OEM cast components, satisfaction guaranteed.

This kit DOES NOT include a filter, vernatherm valve, or probe adapter (shown for visualization purposes only).  For experimental category aircraft we recommend use of what we call the "Minifilter" (shown at left of gallery view) which will be available as a local purchase.  The kit includes filter housing, detailed instructions, and all small parts needed for basic installation. 

** Experimental category Lycoming O-320H2AD engine (double magneto combined into one housing with a single drive connection) users interested in using this kit should contact us.  It is possible to make a very minor modification (to the OEM oil cooler adapter fitted to this engine) to provide bolt on 90 degree filter capability. Owners of engines  certificated in categories other than the "EXPERIMENTAL" category should NOT contact us regarding this modification.  Due to the limited market for this application, we have no intention of persuing an FAA STC.

 

       

Call us before bidding to discuss application to your specific aircraft/engine (561-575-3157 8AM-6PM ET).  Athough this kit fits virtually all Lycoming engined aircraft, there are a few engine mount designs that prohibit installation, and some that require optional spacers (typically Van's Aircraft).  Also, check with us first to avoid situations where minor parts (temp. probe adapters, plugs, etc.) will cause time consuming delay chasing small parts when installing the kit (stocked @ Casper Labs).  We maintain a large library of installation photos to help you visualize how it will fit on your plane.  This could save time and shipping after the fact.
