Good type 4 engine cases are getting to be hard to find. I don't know of anyone that is still making them. I have 2, but then I would think good select Corvair engines are also but the type 1 cases in aluminum can be bought brand new yet today and as far as the PSRU unit? I didn't see a price but it just screams money and that's what most KR builders are trying to avoid. I still think Steve Bennett at Great Plain's Aircraft has the best to offer at an (affordable) price . If I were to have to build another firewall forward again, it would be the 2180 V W with the rear drive and I'd leave it to Steve to build it. He guarantee's it.
There is a great need for a larger engine, anyone want to tool up? Just my viewpoint. Have a great day. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Matheson" <mathes...@dodo.com.au> To: "KRnet" <kr...@mylist.net> Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2006 4:45 PM Subject: Re: Réf. : KR> engine > You can get a type 1 case in aluminum > ---------------------------------------- > Why not just use the type 4. > > Have a look at VW engines type 4 with PSRU > http://www.vw-engines.com/ > > Phil Matheson > VH-PKR > mathes...@dodo.com.au > 0358833588 > Australia > Web Page > http://www.philskr2.50megs.com/ > See VW Engines > http://www.vw-engines.com/ > www.homebuilt-aviation.com/ > > > > _______________________________________ > Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp > to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net > please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html
