What is the aircraft Serial Number? If the serial number is 27-2505 through 27-3836, 27-3838 through 27-3943 and the aircraft is equipped with dual 70 amp 12 volt Delco-Remy Alternators, the following alteration will apply.
NOTE: If the aircraft has the dual Prestolite alternators no deviations from the STC approved data is required.
-
The swing arm called for in the STC instructions is the one used on the Delco alternator installation, therefore, purchasing a new one is not required.
-
The Lycoming bracket P/N 77756 is still required. When using this alternator bracket a spacer, approximately 1" in length, will need to be fabricated. You will also need to purchase a longer bolt (AN6-36A).
-
You may need to fabricate a support bracket between the starter and alternator to replace the one that is currently installed. This bracket is approximately 3 x .75 x .24 and is made out of a suitable steel.
-
Placement of the heat shroud is moved slightly to allow more clearance between the shroud and alternator. One of the Knisley clamps (CS051) is shimmed to the cross-over to facilitate the relocating of the heat shroud.
-
The alternator belts should be P/N 37A19773-367.
NOTE: These alterations from the STC installation instructions are not approved. Knisley Welding did not preform an installation conformity on Aztec's with the early model Delco-Remy alternators. While the deviations are minor, the deviations need to be addressed on the FAA Form 337. A field approval of these deviations may be required.
