Overview

These kits from Real Gasket Corp replace problematic pushrod tubes of continental engine models: A-65, A-75, C-75/85/90/125/145, 0-200, 0-300 and GO-300. The installation does not require loosing or removal of the cylinder and converts it to an "independently serviceable" spring loaded pushrod tube system, similar to IO-470, IO-520, and IO-550 continental engines. It also allows access and service to the lifters.

The kit is designed for easy installation and uses real gasket's FAA-PMA pushrod tube seals as used in the continental IO-470, IO-520 and IO-550 engines. For certified aircraft engines. This is a log entry, no special paperwork is required.

Kits include new push-rod tubes.

We installed 6 sets of these on new TCM cylinders at overhaul. The engine hasnt run yet but all appearances are that it will be free of leaks.

Everything you need to upgrade your old leaky push rod tubes. Great fit, installation is pretty straightforward. But you must have the special spring compression tool. I also recommend getting new silicone rocker valve cover gaskets at the same time.

Works great! For clearance from exhaust on cylinder #6 of an O-300 install, had to slightly dent the exhaust. These have a slightly bigger OD than original.

Very pleased with this product. My C85 engine had been on a “progressive oil change” for the last 5-10 hours until my A&P installed these. Now my engine is leak free.

December 5, 2023

Great product once installed. Instructions left a little to be desired. My original lifter covers needed quite a bit of machining before the tube adapters would slide onto them far enough for the seals to work as intended. All in all it’s definitely a better system than the stock design. I’ll use them again.
