 Posted: Thu May 15, 2008 8:24 pm Post subject: 912 engine mount in a Kitfox 4 |
 |
|
Hi all, well I found a 912 for my Kitfox 4 Classic project. It had been mounted on a Rans S-12 so it used a bottom mount. I've never looked at a Kitfox with a 912 mounted and am wondering how the engine mounts to the motor mount. If someone could post a picture or two of their installed engine I would appreciate it. I guess I'm wondering also how the oil tank mounts. The guy that bought my kit from Skystar didn't get the firewall forward package, and in my builders manual, the engine section is empty. I suppost that section will come in handy when I want to start installing the engine. Where can I get a copy of that? Thanks, Jim Chuk Avids, Kitfox 4&nbs===========

Hi Jim,
Contact John at Kitfox LLC. He still deals in most of the previous Kitfox models.
He probably has a mount in stock.

Thank you Gary, You sure have an interesting site! I wish I had faster intenet service. I would like to look at all the photos, but with my slow dialup, it takes a long time. My 912 UL engine came off a pusher (Rans S-12) and used a bed mount. I was trying to find out if the Kitfox 912 mount used the mount that Rotax sells for attaching to the rear of the engine. I see that it does. Hope I can find the Rotax mount used somewhere, I couldn't believe what rotax wanted for it in my 3 year old catalog, and I know the prices listed are about 1/3 higher now. I'm planning to call John Mcbean today, I'm sure that will help to clear up some of my questions. Thanks again, Jim Chuk Avids, Kitfox 4 Mn
