1 D'Shannon Products, Ltd. 1309 County Road 134 Buffalo, MN 55313 Supplemental Type Certificate SA2200SW Installation Instructions Teledyne Continental IO-520-B, -BA, -BB and IO-550-B Engines Series I Beechcraft 35 Airplanes Eligible Models: A35, B35, C35, D35, E35 F35, G35 December 30, 1992 SAMPLE 2 D'Shannon Products, Ltd. 1309 County Road 134 Buffalo, MN 55313 Introduction Supplemental Type Certificate SA2200SW allows installation of the Teledyne Continental Motors IO-520-B, -BA, -BB or IO-550-B engines in most Beech Bonanza and Debonair aircraft which were not factory equipped. It also includes the IO- 550-B engine as a direct replacement for the IO-520-B, -BA and -BB engines that were Beechcraft issue on model 33, 35 and 36 airframes. The Series I aircraft dealt with in these instructions or "First Generation" models require virtually all modifications set forth under this STC. There are options that should be considered before beginning the modification process. First, is the aircraft to be upgraded to Series II (example - P35) or Series III (example - V35B) standards? The considerations here affect overall cost and performance. Under most circumstances, upgrading to Series III standards is more expensive due to more extensive modification. On the other hand, should you decide to upgrade to Series III standards you will be required to install canted engine mounts which are designed to counter the additional torque and "P factor" caused by the higher horsepower. Secondly, when installing the IO-550-B engine on the canted mounts you are not subject to the 285 horsepower manifold pressure restriction that you are when installing the engine on the earlier straight engine mounts which were standard equipment in most Series II aircraft. For the latest drawing or engineering change order revisions, refer to D'Shannon Products Drawing List DL2200SW and Series I Installation Drawing Requirement List DRL2200-1. As continued upgrades and updates to these drawings are possible, attention should be given to insure that the latest changes to the modification can be incorporated. SAMPLE 3 D'Shannon Products, Ltd. 1309 County Road 134 Buffalo, MN 55313 General Description This modification provides a power increase to improve performance of early Beech 35 series airplanes. The general approach has been to install a Continental IO-520-B, -BA, -BB or IO-550-B engine with various eligible two or three blade McCauley or Hartzell propellers as used on later model Bonanza airplanes. The necessary structural modification to bring the engine mount area up to later model integrity must be accomplished. In general this has been done through the installation of Beech parts. Some of the increase in strength will be accomplished by reinforcing existing structure using fabricated parts. For balance reasons the battery may be moved from the firewall to a position aft of the baggage area. Modification Procedures Structural Rework Review Canted mounts (Series III upgrade): 1. Remove existing engine mounts and supports. Remove nose section and existing pan forward of station 12.125. Modify bulkhead at sta. 12.125 per 54-10-00 and 68B001.
