Peterson Auto Fuel STC (run on 87 octane unleaded auto gas) recommend you use one tank full of 100LL avgas every 75 hours to replace lead on the valve seats https://www.autofuelstc.com/stc_specs.phtml?mobi=0 This aircraft has primarily been run on 100LL AvGas since 1997 because there was no easy AutoGas service at the airport it was based at. But at times it has been run on AutoGas or avgas/AutoGas mixed and no combination has ever had an issue. Can save significant operating cost if there is a good AutoGas source nearby.

INTERIOR
Replaced rear seats with https://lakevueaeronautics.com/ folding seats to make more room but still seat 4 and reduce weight to partly make up for the chute. (Still have stock rear seat that comes with plane) However, the weight of the chute is rearward CG which is where you want ballast if you fly with full long-range tanks and two men in front. Good setup with 21st century safety for someone who values the backup option.

PROP
Prop has been electronically balanced, which noticeable reduces vibration across the entire aircraft
BRS-182 Whole Airframe Ballistic Parachute installed, same unit as in Cirrus https://brsaerospace.com/cessna/

BRS-182 BALLISTIC PARACHUTE
There is a BRS-182 ballistic parachute installed, so, you get Cirrus like backup at 1960s Cessna price. https://brsaerospace.com/cessna/

The reasoning to install it was filming over the North Cascades, where there is no good emergency landing area. But for any aircraft, no matter how well maintained or how much you spend on your aircraft, failures occur that are unpredictable. A chute cannot save you in every circumstance, but its deployment is at the pilots discretion, so its use is not mandatory, and its systems are independent of the over 60 year old aircraft systems and are pretty foolproof and reliable. Even if you choose to land in a field during an emergency and do not deploy the chute, but then get on the ground and are running out of room, as in a fence or ditch swiftly approach you can deploy the chute at that time and stop much sooner. In a mid-air collision in the pattern, as in a low wing plane descending into a high wing plane, or an engine failure, the system can successfully deploy as low as 350 feet. https://www.flyingmag.com/news-another-brs-save-time-cessna/ A modern and logical backup for a single engine aircraft. Additionally, if you ever carry a non-pilot passenger
and you the pilot have a medical issue, or take a bird in the face, your non pilot passenger can deploy the chute.
