Hi Dave;
I have sent an email to Piper customer support. I'll relay the information when it arrives.

Hi, Ed here.
I just overhauled the IO540K1A5 engine in my 1971 PA32-300 and am installing it. I did take pictures before engine removal, but none show... Show more
I have a PA-28-180 and it appears the engine angle is a little more down than expected. It has new engine mounts. The distance from he spinner to the bottom of the cowl is about 3/8" closer than the top. I measured the angle of the engine with respect to the airframe horizontal line (2 screws underneath the pilot window) and it is 5 degrees. I can't seem to find out what the spec is. A local airframe company indicated I would probably have to contact Piper to get that spec, but not sure where to start that process. The firewall and engine cradle have all been checked out and not bends or damage have been noticed.The first question is what is the specification for the engine angle for this aircraft? The second would be, if it is significantly off, what can be done, or is it even a big deal?
Thanks for your help.

I highly recommend Ivanair at Ksac. He was a piper dealer and has maintained my P28R200 for 10 years. Sky wagon folks should know him. Good luck on your purchase, looks like a nice plane.

Well, I can report that the older style trunnions are a direct swap with the newer style that were on my ‘71, except we had to lower the squar switch by 7/8 to accommodate a lower bracket on the older style leg.

I am looking at a 1962 PA-23-235 for sale near Lock Haven, PA. The plane has not had an annual inspection since 04-2010, was flown that year, and had been regularly run, but not flown, since 04-2011. The plane has been in a heated hangar. I need a pre-buy and A&P who can assist with a pre-purchase and ferry permit acquisition on location. Please call or text 310.850.7855 or email me at . Thanks, and looking forward to joining the family!

Hi Lydell;
I'm interested in the pilot and copilot chairs. What are you asking, and where are you shipping from?
Thanks

I have a service manual and the drawing for the pitch trim system is as follows: aircraft buss; circuit breaker (5 amp; labeled pitch trim) 20 gauge wire (wire number C1A) goes to switch; then on to a box labeled "see elect trim inst" then out of the box to ground.
Not much information there.

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the trim system in a 1982 Piper Turbo Arrow? I can't seem to find one online.

Thanks for the advice, definitely will fly her as is for the moment (Assuming the purchase goes through) and see how it goes.
Makes sense about the wait for new stuff, coming from IT it's always better to have someone else find the bugs 
And yes love the G5 my training plane had one and it was absolutely fantastic.

Look at AVEO EYE BEAM TOUCH NVG BLACK at Spruce Aircraft. A friend with an Arrow has converted his fairly easily.
