It's becoming a problem, more so as I get older. I've pulled the plane out of the hangar and taxiied down the ramp to the entrance to the taxiway and realize, too late in some cases, that I'm not flying a Griffon-powered Mark XIV Spitfire. I'm actually at the controls of my GP2180-powered KR-1?. Th

Comes down to weight and balance. Mark did some mods to his corvair aircraft and gained about 10 hp. On the other hand you could compare a VW powered KR2s vs on powered by a corvair and the weight difference is offset by the increase in power and the fact that your not working the larger engi

Ok, its best to let the FSDO decide. Here is one that will cause some discussion. My Smith Miniplane was built with an O-235-C. At some point it was changed to an O-290-D. I am now putting in an O-235-C again. We are talking a 10 Hp change...Is this a major or minor change? Craig

I let my DAR know, or ask someone at your FSDO. They will tell you, but I do believe that an engine change will do that. In fact, if I remember correctly, I went back to phase 1 when I changed from the VW to the Corvair on the BlackBird. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.o

Off and on I've looked at the Stewart Warner gauge, 2.25 diameter. It's my current choice unless I come across something better. Van's sells one that looks better (appearance), for about 30% more than the SW. But reliability reports on it and other Van's-branded & sold instruments are not genera
