Funny you mention that. I had one for a week and then returned it. I bought around Christmas time here in So Cal. Around Christmas time they had a special on that engine it was $299.99 so with tax came out to $323. I decided to return it because I was trying to buy another aircraft at the time. (Chip Hyde Vision).

Thought it was a nice engine, but I think I'm a Saito/YS man at heart. The only reviews on the Magnum 180 were for the ASP 180 on the Just Engines website.

Good tach readings in the reviews, but for this plane I might pick up the Magnum 180 or the Saito. Chief has a good price on the 180 saitos with shipping included.

I can buy the Saito 180 at my LHS for $350. I had one a year ago and let it go for 315 and it was brand new. I hear the 180 likes fuel.
