Applicable Models:
The 3C1-R430A1X/76C03-2X2 propeller is 74” in diameter and has been vibrationally tested, and is compatible with damped (crankshaft counterweights) Lycoming 360 and 390 series engines (e.g. Lycoming IO-360-A1B6). The new propeller must not be used with undamped Lycoming 360 engines (e.g. Lycoming IO-360-M1B). This is suggested for Van’s RV-(7A ,8 ,8A ,14) models; Van’s does not recommend 74” diameter on tailwheel models other than the RV-8. This prop is also suggested for Glasair & Glastar Sportsman where cross country performance is the priority.
