hi guys! this is like my fifth post on here.
i haven,t posted in here a lot so ill re introduce my self, my name is dave thornton, im 19 and from scotland. im currently studdying mechanics and had a spare engine lying around so i thought do a project building a plane.





this is my engine which i think is a robin nb30 can anyone confirm this?
right iv got some questions
[sm=tongue.gif]

first off has anyone got anymore info on this engine? what parts are interchangable with other motors?
would a piston fit off another cc of engine?
what are good carbs for this engine? ( i want to run on gas)
where can i get a decent cheap exhaust for it?
what tools do you guys use to put the pistons back in i thought about using a jubilee clip as a piston ring clamp would be too tall!
what kind of planes would this engine suit? (bear in mind im a skint student[sm=spinnyeyes.gif] )
and lastly what kind of speeds would be expected out this engine in a plane roughly?

i have never owned a plane so i dont know too much, i have owned an rc car tho.

thank you.
