Mark, Weight is to much for a KR2 CG, might be ok with a kr2s. I have a kr2 and thought the same till I started working on the weight and balance. I would have had to move the seat back to far. I am working now on a kr2 with a jabiru 3300 but have to build a swing away mount to work on the engine because of how close the engine is to the firewall. Also had to move the battery to the back to make CG work becouse the engine is longer then the VW type engine. It's been a lot of work and if I was to do it again I would have done a kr2s stretch and save a lot of headaches. Even when I get done I really only have a fast one place plan.Run some numbers before you buy the engine and weigh how much work it is to do it. Good luck with your projectWilliamKR2 N9099A Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Fri, Feb 22, 2019 at 7:53 AM, Mark Boese via KRnet<krnet@list.krnet.org> wrote: Is there any one who has a Lycoming 0-235 in a Kr2? There is one that was taken out in favour of a larger one in a float plane just down the road from me. Price is very reasonable. Condition is good. I was planning on hunting up an 0-200 or something from Continental's line up. Is this worth pursuing?
