Default Magnum Engine Question

Hi All,

I’ve been very busy the last few months, buying, rebuilding, fixing and my first ever covering job (came out much better than I thought). I’m waiting for the first good weather of 2005 and I’ll be out with loads of new planes ready to fly.

I’ve bought a Weston MagnumR (at last) but can not afford to buy the West V1 engine. I have the following engines available to install in this plane. Which one of these would you recommend and could you estimate the speed with the engines. I will be sharing this plane with a friend, who has never flown a out and out speed plane before.

OS 40 LA
Irvine 40
MVVS 40 with Tuned pipe
Rossi 40 with standard pipe

Thank you
Alastair
