Thanks JP.
I googled for a couple of hours last night looking for that.

Does anyone know of any production twins with 680s or 670s. The only

one
I
can think of is the Cessna T50.

Also, what are the weights of the gipsy series of engines?

I'm toying with the idea of a diesel project with a certified diesel if

I
can find a pair of them and something that I can hang them on.
