Would a Saito 90 3 cyl. radial be enough power for a Midwest Stearman? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Nope, not enough umph!!! The Saito 170 3 cylinder radial would be much better for that plane.

ditto, the 90 is a beauty, in a 40 size!

How about a Saito 170 radial in a Great Planes Stearman? It weighs about 15 lbs. Calls for a 91-1.20 four stroke. I think the 170 puts out about 2 HP.

I have a saito 1.80 in my great planes stearman and it is more than enough power. The 3 cyl 170 would sound great and fly the plane well.
