Do you guys know that you can purchase Aeroshell 15W50 and W100 or W80 at some Sams club locations. If yours does not stock, I was able to get mine in Ogden,UT to do so. I ordered 20 cases, this primed the pump to get them to stock and I spread the word to others to keep the demand up to keep it...

A group of us are building a Pulsar and expect to license it in exp-LSA and are seriously considering the 80 horse Jabiru as a powerplant. The engine, and FWF kit are less than the Rotax, without having a gearbox to complicate things. Who out there has experience with this...
