NOTE 4.

Model C-38 aircraft may be converted to model C-165 by installing the model C-165 engine- propeller combinations. This will include all necessary revisions so that the resulting installations will be as shown on Cessna Drawings C39220 (Motor Mount), C39750 or C40751 (Oil Tank), C39750-5 or C-40750-5 (Oil Drain), C39900 (C-165 Motor Installation), C39911 (Exhaust Collector), C39914 (Cold Air Scoop), C39920 (Firewall) and C38766 (Gas Lines), revision C. These aircraft, when converted, will conform in general to the model C-165 except or the plywood ribs and fuselage flap.
