Hi all, Just discovered this amongst all my archived stuff;
Engine HP Weight(lbs) Great Plains VW 1600CC 55 160 Limbach L 1800 66 154 Limbach L 1700 66 161 Great Plains VW 2180CC 75 165 Limbach L 2000 80 155 Limbach L 2400 94 181 Great Plains VW 2600CC 96 190 Hirth F30-FP24 120 101 Bob's figures confirms the above. Thank you for your reply Bob. It seems like close to 100HP from a VW might be achievable then. Only question I now have is how much weight can absolutely be shed by removing things like i.e. the starter? Is the flywheel, although lightened, really required in addition to the weight of the prop?
