Default RE: Rossi engine

ORIGINAL: bcfhigdon

Trying to make up my mind on what engine to power a Phoenix 8 with. Looks like for a new engine it would be a Jett or Rossi. Looking for any feedback on the Rossi engine on how it runs, tuning etc. Thanks Clint
Clint.....the Rossi side exhaust may be too big physically to fit in the P8.
These engines are really robust and bulletproof but larger than the intended engine for that airplane.
I have a 206R61 that I special ordered from SG for a project that I need to finish.
I cant wait to run it. Hopefully it will be as strong as the short strokes I used in the 80's....probably won't though because I think this engine is a long stroke.
