I've spoken with Mr. Wood in Colorado who installed a 914 in his 701 about
10 years ago, and who has about 900 hours on it. He is very, very happy.

His reason for going to the 914 was that his strip is at 5000 ft and he needs
13000 ft just to clear the terrain in certain directions. He loves his 914 and
would do it again in an instant.

He also told me that there was no more than a 10 pound weight penalty in
going from the 912ULS to the 914, and that the 914 has been a beautiful,
reliable, trouble-free engine.

I'm wondering if there's anybody else out there with a 914/701
installation,
and if so, their comments.

Thanks,

Here I am... 
 
With about 200 hrs in 701 experience shared (both pilots, my brother Larry and myself).  flying a "no XCountry" Smile  airplane to great places several flying hours, wekends and days away.  
 
Well,  We fly normally from our 5,029 Ft ASL  strip, year round,  in summer we get temps around the 100 °F.   winter is cold... about 40° F in the early morning (for us at least:-)
 
The strips and airports around here are up two almost 9,000 ft. 
 
The highest we have flown off (in the 701) with half tanks, two aboard (about 330 lbs), 20 lbs  luggage   and the GPS  was from a 6,900  paved strip (Lagos de Moreno Airport) 
Take off was a liitle longer, almost like a "normal" airplane Smile  but did climb about 400 ft/min at 70 mph. to cruise altitude. 
 
When we go to the sea shore  (Pacific Coast) we climb over the Sierra at around 11,000 (give or take)  to make the crossing then "glide" down to sea level....   Back trip is the oposite.  Total time (average) each way 1 hr and 20 minutes, depends on wind direction. Good turbulence experience in this trips, and the 701 has enough controls to handle that and more..
