You are asking me to interpret what Keith said. This is a lose/lose situation for me. <G>

My impression was that they were going to convert a G61 to burn gas/oil mix for fuel, but then thought, "Hey, for nearly the same weight, or less, we can choose the G90 and convert that, realizing a performance increase without the extra weight". In my mind, he was referencing the G61 as the original engine. I would think that his later power estimations and comparisons were based upon comparing the glow G61's power with that of the BME G90. I could very well be wrong.

I can't afford a good New York Lawyer, so someone will just have to run some tests and report the results.

Personally, I would be satisfied as a customer if my BME G90 equalled the performance of the G61 on glow. Anything extra would make me ecstatic. <G>

This kind of reminds me of the reaction of the modeling public to the introduction of .90 sized four-strokes. Some folks just couldn't get that huge (then) displacement out of their minds and were terribly disappointed when they flew their engines for the first time. Everyone had advertised that four-strokes were not equal to two-strokes, but the vision of the .90 displacement persisted and shoved logic and reason out of the way. Lots of four-strokes sold cheaply in the used market for a while because of it. It is all about expectations.
