Initially I wanted to swap the 25LA by a 40SF, but the extra weight of the 40SF compared to the 40FP made me change my mind.
But for my next plane I plan to use the 40SF converted to gas 😉
Is the SF that much heavier? I was not aware, but I am fairly sure the difference in power output would more than compensate for the additional weight.
And SF's are very nice runners...
