They are both basically stock VW engines with big bore kits and use the automotive crank. They date back to the '80's but parts should still be available. The Airovee was used on the Sonari planes. I bought a few parts from them for usen in my KR years ago. The engine mount bolt pattern might be different on them with those add on bell housing castings.
