Hi everybody,



I am a Kitfox owner from Germany. I have a model III with a Rotax 582 and have purchased a KFM 112M a couple of days ago.....without an engine mount! Does anybody possibly have some technical drawings to build one....?



Greetings from Germany

Tobi C I am familiar with KFM motorcycles. I don't think you are going to find any info on that particular mount. IYou are the 1st one that I have heard of using a KFM engine. What type C size  C HP and weight is that engine? What reduction box are you going to use?

Hi Pat,



The engine is  a 4 cylinder 4 stroke with 1600 cc and is by design an aircraft engine. It is a direct drive and was actually an  option for the model II. It looks very much like a shrinked Lycoming and produces some 62hp. Production stopped in the early ninties.
