Hangar9 30cc spitfire
 

Has anyone put a 50cc in this 30cc spitfire? I have a Da 50 looking for a warbird home. I have had this engine in 2 other 50cc spits and required alot of nose weight. I was thinking this might be a better fit.

I don't have a DA 50 handy to fit but a DLE 35 is a tight fit in that very narrow nose

With that setup it needs nose weight

Nose weight is what I"m trying to get away from. I have had 2 50cc spits in which I had to have 4 to 5 pounds of nose weight. I think the 50cc will help with the weight issue if I can fit it in there. I can build a custom muffler to accomodate the fit if need be. I"m sure the head will stick out a bit though.
