KRnetters: I have an old 36 hp VW engine that has not been ran in years. What I want to know is the largest displacement engin that the case can be turned into. I have cossidered just replacing the crank with a forged one and just overhauling it as a 36 hp for a mini-max or a high max or maybe just get running for taxi testing. I am also wondering if it will be useful for developing baffleing. Whatever I do it will not go permanently into the finalized KR I'm working on.
