Hi guys. I am converting my A65-8F to an A75-8F and I ran into this interesting puzzle.
While consulting the Continental A65-Series overhaul manual and looking in the parts list and comparing this list to the Continental SB M47-16 and the list of required parts to be changed when performing this conversion I noticed in the Continental overhaul manual figure 30 the A65 has two "crankcase thru bolt" 7/16-20x10.60 in. lg. (p/n 627275)(item 20 in the drawing) while the A75 has two "stud" 7/16x6-3/32 in. lg. (p/n 25329) (also item 20 in the drawing) yet in the Continental SB M47-16 these parts are not mentioned as needing to be exchanged when converting from the A65 to the A75. I wonder why?
