    New Forum Member with new to me 140

    Congratulations on buying a 140! A great simple plane, and one with a lot of potential. I bought one in sad condition and was able to build mods around it to enable a crrise of 157 MPH. All the mods are certified and really work! Please reply if you'd like more information and help. Robin...

    Upgrading Cherokee 140 to 180HP

    Hi Arzenmaster I mentioned your performance problem with the Power Flow systems exhaust to the President and Sales manager of PFS today. They were beyond shocked. So we all want to get to the bottom of this. Please email [email protected]... he's the president. I'm the founder and...

    Hello Juan To get in line, please place an order with Darren or Jim at 386 253 8833... They will answer Power Flow, but the same people work in each company. Darren said it would take at least 3 to 4 weeks to get a set of SpeedPants ready for you to pick up. I can come to meet you and...

    Lance Speed Mods

    Hi Rick, It seems we agree on a lot of things, i'm glad to say. Our area of disagreement is not in what you have done, but in what you have not done. The PA32 may be referred to as a boxy load carrier, but there is not a lot of difference between that and a greyhound. I'm quoting from...

    Lance Speed Mods

    Hello Rick You have some valid experience, and I appreciate your comments. Your question about what there is to gain by more mods when you are pushing the yellow anyway is really interesting, You don't have to go any faster to get the benefits from speed mods...; you can simply increase...

    Web Site Information

    After our website was rebuilt last year, I failed to notice that our independent reviews had essentially disappeared!! I have now arranged for them to come back, and you can find them under MEDIA. First, you'll be able to see some in flight videos, showing performance before and after the...

    Laminar Flow For Dakotas

    It took a little longer than I had hoped, but I finally have the information up on the Laminarflowsystems.com website. If you go there, along the line of headings at the top, you'll come across a title called MEDIA. Click on that and three down, you"ll find the Lance article by Aviation...

    180 HP Installed In My Warrior

    Exhaust System changes. Strange to say, bends are not where the losses are. The power robbing occurs because of high pressure waves blocking the gases from leaving the cylinders. The power flow systems exhaust is carefully designed so , instead of positive pressure meeting the gases coming...

    Turbo Lance II - what to look for?

    Hey IMF13 I decided I would check the Laminar Flow Systems website myself to see if it was working as it should... Big time egg on face!! I could not make the links work. So the problem has been passed back to our web man, and I expect an answer and a solution in a few days. I WILL get back...

    Turbo Lance II - what to look for?

    Blow my own horn here... but would not do it unless it was also good for you. The Lance with a Laminar Flow Systems kit is a different kind of bird altogether. It's as fast as a Bonanza, with far more room and fewer hassles. (I know, we own an A36 Bonanza). The Laminar Flow SystemsKit will...

    Finding knots ... gap seals and rudder rigging questions

    Those flap and aileron gap seals look deformed, most likely by careless mechanics. However, they can be straightened with a little effort. I doubt whether they were badly installed originally. Most likely bent out of shape by mechanics forcing tools in there without looking for a tool which...

    Low fuel pressure

    I have not read the above thread in detail, so I may be repeating what someone else has said... I hope not. When I had a Cherokee 140, I started experimenting with using auto-gas. To hedge my bets, I used to put auto-gas in one tank, and avgas in the other. I would then takeoff and do initial...

    O-320 Slight Vibration... Suggestions?

    I'm going to throw in my 2 cents... When you pull back the throttle you are increasing the differential pressure from the inside to the outside... so any leaks will be very much magnified. My guess is that you a have an intake leak in one of the cylinder intake tubes, which has no effect at...
