I've spent some time and took off all the "stuff" on this 13B that I don't need for aviation conversion. I'll be adding the water pump assembly to the right side in this pic and the flywheel in front of the counterbalance on the left side along with a highly modified intake.
Here is the "combustion" section of the engine. What you are looking at are the twin rotors that will generate 180HP, and what would be intake valves, exhaust valves and pistons jugs on a horizontally opposed engine. The tape measure at the bottom is locked in at 12":-) http://rvflying.tripod.com/aero3.jpg Man, if we could find one for a KR........... Course the KR now has the corvair. The issue I had was using a big block to get 180HP was just way too heavy. This is my cat's meow:-) Dan, flying it to the gathering may just be stretching it a little too tight. I'll try though!!
