Almost everyone has gone either the 320/360 rute looking for more horsies (160/180+) and empty weights close to the 1,000 lbs mark . These are fast birds but need a runway suitable for an F16 . I don’t think that’s what Burt had in mind when he designed it in the 70s , I am considering going in the other direction I have a 912 ULS I have rebuilt with the Edge 1484 big bore and camshaft , this will make the 912 a 120hp engine together with the MT variable speed prop she should perform as well as 150hp in regards to relative efficiency not to mention I suspect it can be built just under 650lbs ... yes the 915is would be nice but $50,000 for an engine is a little much ... any ideas ?
