Just picked up my Lancair from the LHS last night. Very nice looking kit. I've not had too much luck with GP ARFs, so hopefully I'll get lucky this time.

My question, is engine selection. I've noticed on some of the other thread folks using OS .91s, etc. Most of the pics I've seen the cowl is cut for the valve cover. I'm looking for a 4-stroke solution that would keep me from having to hack the cowl up.

If any of you Lancair owners have accomplished this, please advise.

Thanks

Im using a 2 stroke .65, all in cowl, plenty of power, take a look www.nchaloclan.com/plane.htm , I would recommend keeping it in the cowl with a smaller engine, it looks very nice.
