Posted this in the hangar before. Got lots of looks, but no replies.

Do any of you know of a STC approved Rocker box oil recovery valve/system for the C-45?

I haven't been able to find an STC for either P&W R-985 Series, Hawker Beechcraft 18, D-18, 3NM, C-45 series airplanes.
I've seen airplanes with them, but doubtful if they are legal installations.

the valves I used to sell are legal installs with a field approval and a previously approved 337 as aproved data. There are a number of T-6s and C-45s that had the valves that Carl Schmieder made.

If I can find a shop to make them for me that are affordable, I will try to get some done.

Alden Engineering has a Rocker Oil Retrieval System that I have installed on a couple of T-6s under a STC. Titled RORS IIRC.
I don't know if anything is advertised in NATA Skylines magazine.
