Default Engine Recomendation for 120 CAP232

Jim, I flew last year with a couple guy's that yanked their Saito 1.80's out and went with O.S. 1.60's in their H-9 caps and got better performance, not like they would have with a Moki but better than the Saito, so I agree with you. Nothing beats a Moki 1.80 in the H-9 cap.
Actually, I would expect great performance from the OS FX 1.60, except since this airplane tends to be tail heavy and the OS is a very light engine at 32ozs you have to put too much weight on the nose to balance it.
