Default FA: 75 hp Revmaster VW engine w/accessories

My EAA Chapter is selling the VW engine that was destined for the Kolb Mark
III chapter project before determining it put the CG too far aft. The engine
comes complete with all the accessories, ready to bolt on, including: dual
ignition, carbeurator, alternator, exhaust, carb heat, tach, oil temp, 2 CHT
sensors, AND propellor, cooling scoops, and fairing for a pusher
configuration. Should just need a different prop and exhuast for tractor
configuation.

Worth three times the Buy It Now price!

Come on Barnyard Bob, I know you want this! =D

Geez, I'd love too, but Morgans won't let me.
He sez it looks too much like an aircraft engine
and has no "benefits" of a real auto engine. g

Have you tried Jay?
He might spring for a pair of these puppies.....
if they ain't too reliable.

Mind blowing....
Absolutely mind blowing.

All I have to say is.....

My 72 Beetle, barely can pull it's sorry butt up a hill, here in NC.

Not to talk about reliability.

Are you sure it's the VW's butt that's the problem? big grin

OOOOH! THAT HURTS! :-)

Although I am slightly over one standard FAA person, not by much.

I do tend to believe Vwub's articles that peg the VW at around 40 hp as much
more realistic. That is a lot of weight for that amount of power.
