Default Engine too big for a Lanier Ultimate P

Hi Endoman,

The saito 200 weights 3.22 lbs (1460 gr), and the Fuji 32, 3.75 lbs (1700 gr) so the difference is about 0,5 lbs (240 gr.) Do you think it will make a real favorable difference? . I would like to have a twin on it, so my next choice is the Saito 182 that weights 2,3 lbs (1040 gr) . If you were in this situation which one you will place in your actual plane? I think the Saito 182 has a little less power than the Saito 180, do you think it is going to fly well with this one instead of the Saito 200.?
I really appreciate your comments, I am taking notes about what you have done with the landing year, I think it is very wise.

According to Horizon:
Saito 200 3bhp 1460gr
Saito 182 2,5 - 2,8 bhp 1040gr (not so sure about 2.8)
