4-stroke Gas engine in USA
 

Hello,

I am building a Turner Special and I am looking for a 4-stroke engine with gas for it. I prefer Gas because the sound is more real and it is not as dirty as glow. In Germany we have one Guy that produces 4-Stroke engines. See here: http://www.sawo-motoren.de/motoren.html
Also a radial engine like Moki would be nice, but it is way to expensive.

My question is, do you also have producers that build 4-stroke gas engines in the USA? Because of the good Dollar Course, for us in Europe, it is maybe a good alternetiv too the expensive engine in Germany.
Thanks a lot!!!
Marc

Saito sells a 36cc I think it goes for about $600. I have a friend has a Honda 25cc that he has on a biplane I think it went for $300, I don't know who markets them though, next time I see him I'll ask

I have a Ryobi 25cc 4cycle garden engine I could part with. No time to put it in a plane.

I've been looking at this one for a while:

It's expensive though, but bigger than the Saito.

thanks for the info. The Engine should be at least 50ccm. Also it its not good if the engine is to light. So I prefer to get a bigger engine with more power before i put lead on the plan. The RCS enngien ist sold in Europ under the NAme Moki and they sell them for the same price.
