I have to admit that I am unfamiliar with the fuel valve setup here.
However, recently I was able to get approval to use the new AC 23-27 as a
means of approval to use a ball valve for replacement of a main fuel valve
shut off for a Champ. There are some caveats though. You can not modify the
operation linkage or means of installation of the valve. In other words, if
you can do a swap without having to modify anything, you should be able to
get approval. I had my local FSDO give it's blessing. This is the exact
scenario as to why this new AC was created. Ask your local IA or FSDO.

After discussions with members about fuel valves, has come to my attention
that there might be differences in the valves.

To anybody that would know, are there any STC's or mods out there to change
the originals valves out?
