I have run across an IO 360 A2B engine with about 850 hours on it.  It is a

1967 200 HP engine off a Beach Musketeer.



I am wondering if someone could tell me if this would have a hollow

crankshaft to accept a constant speed prop?  Also if the engine has been

sitting for awhile (not pickled but indoors) what could one expect the value

to be perhaps as a core.  It has all the accessories on it including carb,

alternator, starter, mags, etc.



I know there are lots of variables, but looking for an idea or approximate.

Thanks

Original hours or majored??  If majored, how long ago.  Lycomings 
	


guidelines are 2400 hours (I think on this engine) or 12 years.

I can't.  Lycoming may have a model list on their web site .....

I've bought run-out engines in the $3000 to $4000 range ..... depending 
	


on HP and injected vs carb.  For this one, something a little less than 

$4000.

Thanks Linn,



I did find a 68 Super Musketeer III for sale with the same engine and a

constant speed prop.  I would guess that means this engine has the ability

to do constant speed.  Lycoming's site shows the Musketeer is the only

airframe this engine was for.



Somewhere I had seen a chart showing what each part of the model designation

stood for.  I cannot find this, so if anybody could point me to this, I

would appreciate it.

I think you should be able to find what you are looking for somewhere on this

 According to the chart it is supposed to be injected not carbureted and it  has a fixed pitch.

Hi Jack,



It took awhile but I did find the chart from a link on this site.  Thank

you.  According to the chart, in the A2B the 2 would indicate solid crank

and the B could mean no governor and or pad at the accessory case.  I did

find a musketeer with this engine for sale that had a constant speed prop

but they may have made a change in crank and or accessory case to make that

happen.  I don't really know.



It appears from the Lyco site the engine was only used in the Super

Musketeer and never came with a constant speed prop.
