Status: offline 		I know they're new on the market, but when I opened the box, my first thought was, I wonder if a G-38 would fit? I LIKE G-38 powered Warbirds. Has anyone tried this, or do you think it would be overkill? WLJ

Status: offline 		William,

I just went and picked up a G-38 that I had put on loan to a friend to see how it would install in the H-9 P-51 150.

I think that this would make for a nice combination power/weight ratio wise. I like the added reliability of gas vs. glow.... although my Saito 150 has been very reliable, even being inverted with no on-board glow.

My issue with the G-38 install is in trying to maintain the clean lines in the nose area. I know we are not talking about a Top Gun contender here.... but it gnaws at me to see carbs and such hanging in the breeze.

Status: offline 		Thanks for the responce Countryboy. This will be the second one of these flying in the club. The first is flying on a Saito-180 + 5oz. of weight in the nose. I'm just starting on this one. I'm putting it together for a friend. He's got a Saito 180, but thinking about getting one of the Saito 200 V-Twins. I'm pushing for a gasser. I'd be real interested in your progress with the G-38 installation. Thanks, B.J.
