Default SUPER TIGRE ENGINES

LadyFlyer: I owned a S.40 Bluehead. It was my favorite engine of all times. Had it on many airplanes, and the compression was geting low for good hand starts. I placed a pump on it and it revved higher than it ever did, it screemed. Never did wear that engine out, a friend bought it, I gave him low price on it because I sure got my $$ worth out of it. I sure hope the new company will use good metals like the orginal. I am sure they can machine the parts as good(I hope) Thanks Captain John
