Randy I'm very interested in the details of your EJ22 install. I'm looking at installing an EJ22Turbo (target HP 210) on my KR2XS and I was looking into cooling, mounting and cowling issues. Cheers. Pete. stranged...@dodo.com.au

It cruise at 160mph and I topped out at the flyin at 235mph. It is heavy,but with all that power it really doesn't matter. I am not sure how heavy the engine is because the plane was over built by Less Palmer. I have a E-81 with a re drive in my hanger and when I pulled it off of Bud Wilsons KR-2 I weighed it with all components but antifreeze and it weighed in at about 225lbs. This engine is for sale with redrive ready to mount including motor mount with nose gear bracket If anyone is interested. --- "Myron (Dan) Freeman" <mfreem...@indy.rr.com> wrote: > Good type 4 engine cases are getting to be hard to > find.
