Looking for a sub-100hp engine with long TBO time.
You should check out the Rotax 912. It is 80hp, four stroke, and weighs
about 125 pounds. It has a TBO of 1500 hours.

This is for a hypothetical ultralight design, so just looking for
suggestions here of where to look at... hopefully a 4-stroke, purchase
price doesn't matter much, certification status doesn't matter either.
Long time before overhaul matters A LOT... so, the longer the better.
Is there anything out there in the 80-hp range? How about a motorcycle
engine conversion - how long can those go before needing to be
overhauled?
Thanks!
