Yes they did It was made for the Mooney PFM 3200, which was a stretched airframe 210J. >From what I understand Porsche helped Mooney get the airframe certified. Then later Mooney dropped Porsche and put in a Lycoming TIO-540. Mooney couldn't afford the cert themselves, and Lycoming wouldn't help them with costs. It's fully dressed weight is comparable to a TIO-540. So it would be way to heavy and powerful for a KR-2.

I was just wondering if anyone knows it Porsche actually made that engine for aircraft use or if it was a conversion that another company did. I assume it was a 3,200 CC engine. It has six cylinders and they show it installed in some fairly good sized airplanes.
