Dear Cubbers,
I'm in the final stages of collecting all the nickel and dime parts to complete the firewall forward install of my C-85. I've exhausted all my usual sources (Univair, Spruce, etc) and now have a few ankle biters I'm having trouble finding. The problem is that I've been using a Continental Overhaul and Parts Manual, which obviously only references vintage Continental part numbers.
I've also found out during the process of removing my old engine (and getting knee-deep in the manuals) that my engine has been operating without components. My list looks like this:
1. Tailpipe exhaust Brace (70581-00)
2. Muffler Stack Connecting Clamp (70591-02)
3. Tailpipe Brace Clamp ( 80002-22)
4. Breather Line Hose Clamp (454-881)
5. Engine Breather Line Flexible Hose (74311-00)
6. Carburetor Heat Take-off Elbow (72911-00)
Plus all the normal fiber, washers associated with the firewall and engine mounts.
If you guys have any ideas, or better yet a source where I can get all the stuff at the same place, it would be greatly appreciated.
