I installed a 180 on my airplane pa28-140 and was supposed to installed an operation placard by the pilots left hand on the window sill. Avcon 831-1 which was missing from the kit. I forgot about it, till I got checked. Can anyone tell me what is on the placard.
I have the STC DA793CE but no placard.
 
Info is sparse with the FAA. STC Number: SA793CE
Description of the Type Design Change:
Installation of Lycoming O-360-( ) engine and Hartzell HC-C2YK-1B/7666A-2 or Sensenich 76EM8S5 or McCauley 1A170EFA propeller.

The proper ways to get the info would be to contact the STC holder directly. This certificate issued to:
Williams Robert or Barbara
213 N. Clark, Udall KS 67146
Phone: 620-782-3317

Since these folks may be "gone", then you'd need to file an FOI request with the FAA Responsible Office:
ACE-115W Wichita Aircraft Certification Office Tel: (316) 946-4100

A similar STC, SA805NE, was issued by ANE-170 New York Aircraft Certification Office Tel: (516) 228-7300.

Either one of those requests will need a certified, return receipt showing you failed to contact the owner of the STC.

A little more details may be had from this starting point: http://www.faa.gov/aircraft/air_cert/design_approvals/stc/stc_install/

Also, you might check the registration database for other PA28-140s with O-360 engines and see if the owners could take a picture of the placard. This would assume you had been issued the STC directly, and it was properly logged in your plane's logs and AFM (and ideally filed with the FAA).

Just to be sure, know that if you're trying to upgrade, the STC has to be issued to your specific aircraft by the STC owner. Can't just be a copy of the instructions, copy of the placards, and a signoff that it's mechanically sound.
