Anyone have a guess or specifics as to the viability of the Kawasaki water craft engine on a mkIII...? I can get the whole craft for 1250.. It is a 4 cyl , fuel injected beast...Somewhere in the 2006 or 7 vintage...Herb

Herb, How long is a piece of string? Same answer as your engine question.

Thought someone might recognize the engine and know more about its suitability....Heavy to be sure...
string? 2 stroke or 4 stroke? Herb

Engine conversions take considerable effort even if it is well suited for the application. Don't think that engine has been done before. Heavy is bad.
The string response was worthless.

I know all the standard stuff about engine conversions...how much
time it takes to make a custom engine install...And the Kolb MkIII out
West used a three cyl variant ...but was not sure of the manufacture
;Yamaha? .
I was more interested in actual , hands on, experience with this
engine(not that many 4 stroke , Kawasaki engines in water craft...maybe
just this one...?) ...Someone who would know its actual wt etc.. or who
had did some preliminary research..
I did the usual search with Google and Yahoo... Of course, I
doubted that anyone was using it on a Kolb...never hurts to ask...unless
someone wants to discuss string theory! 
I have to get back to the boat dealer on Monday to get the model
number,,,and so on..
Without going through the hoops; guessing that a full vw with redrive
would max out the MkIII airframe...and naturally I know where to get the
answers to that... Herb
