I think at sealevel the mkIII would be ok with the HKS...  but at

altitude....  the 912 was my minimum.

Nope, not the right answer.

Kolb marketed the MKIII with the 503 for several years, and I flew one built



to minimum weight with a dual carb 503 on it. With two people, it was slow 

climbing, but better than a Cessna 152. An HKS makes more power than a 503, 

so you would get performance about mid way between what you get with a 503 

and a 582.



Obviously it would be much less fun than with 65, 80, or 100 HP, but it 

would certainly be airworthy.
