I don't think he said the engine was heavy, but only that it was 150 hp.
Guessing Yamaha engine, but just a shot in the dark guess. Kevin in

type of engineering / structural changes are you planning to make with that
long of a wing and that heavy of an engine?There was a KR with an 0-320 as I
recall that attended the Gathering in Red Oak, Iowa but it had a totally
redesigned structure and wasn't really that fast for the horsepower. I'm not
an engineer but I'd hesitate pushing beyond the 2S structure and a moderate
weight 100 to125 hp engine. I think the design in it's somewhat original form
has peaked.Larry Flesner_______________________________________________Search
