On the verge................
rev,
thanks for the cowl measurement. Looks like the Saito 170r3 will fit inside the cowl. Going by all the positive posts on this plane it looks like my wallet is gonna be much lighter than it was before.
I have heard that the 170 I have is equivalent to a 150 four stroke in power so it won't be the fastest thing on earth but I hope will still motor it along okay.
I guess the other benefits are the sound the radial will produce and the extra weight up front should help the balance as well.
