I have need been able to find any real specs on this engine except that it
has an aluminum black with steel reinforcement and sleeves. Should be light for the available power. Might be able to go without gear reduction just using a prop shaft with thrust bearings coupled directly to the crank or flywheel. "Pete Schaefer" wrote in message news:8JSic.32612$IW1.1418846@attbi_s52... What's the continuous rated power? Peak power numbers are meaningless for aircraft. "Bryan" wrote in message ... Has anyone been able to find the weight on the VW V10 diesel engine? This engine produces 550 lb/ft of torque at 2000 rpm and 310 hp at 3750 rpm. Sounds like a great candidate for aircraft to me. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
