If you don't get CONTACT#85 magazine  you would have missed the story of Pat
Panzerra getting a new R3000 'donated' to put and use in their project
601XL. (CONTACT #80 had the full story on this engine)
I sent Pat an email asking about the status of the R-3000, whether it was
still in Beta testing and that was part of the deal or if the R-3000 was
available to all. (Since it fits a VW engine mount Zenith donated an engine
mount which is the 'clue' that this is still in Beta testing)
No reply yet.
I suspect that Revmaster is looking for a 'client' base (Zenith?) big enough
to support  mass production to pay the development costs and next batch
production as these costs must be large and need to be dealt with. 
The R-3000 at $10,000 FWF, looks like another really good choice for the
KR2S alongside the  Corvair but at 2x the price. Still... way under a Jab,
turbo Rotax , or new 0-200 - and it appears less complicated. 
Maybe Pat will comment to the KR net.

Has anyone looked at the new Revmaster R3000, and what do you think about
it?
