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! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...item=244022147 Come on Barnyard Bob, I know you want this! =D Eric |

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. Barnyard BOb -- over 50 years of successful flight |

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. -- Jim in NC |
