I'm with Dan on this one.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm let me think..............

Lycoming
- over priced
- expensive to maintain
- out of date technology (compared to the auto world)
- did I mention over priced :-)
- heavy
- when new, I question if it developed 125 hp

Well thats my impression of most certified engines that were designed before I 
was born.  The main reason to fly experimental is to get away from those 
engines and their expenses.

Flame away

  One of the many reasons that I stick with the KR is because it is designed
  to be powered by auto engines. There is no way that I could ever afford to
  buy an aircraft engine, let alone, maintain one.

  Get ready to get flamed, cause I can smell it coming.

  The best one of these I can think of

  is a Lycoming and if I had it to do over I would build a KR2S and for power,

  I would use a l25 horse power Lycoming.
