I have not posted for some time, but read the list fairly regularly. After a little over 5 years and 203 hours, the HKS 700E was removed and I am now in the process of installing the 912 UL on my Slingshot. I was very pleased with the HKS, but thought it lacked the climb I was used to in my previous Kolb planes. I was able to sell the motor on Barnstormers in one day with many other takers in waiting. I have been collecting the necessary parts over the past 3 years for the changeover, and thanks to Brian's help at EAA, the last of the expensive stuff was acquired. Additional thanks should go out to Daryl at Warp drive, it is a pleasure to deal with these companies that have customer skills that equal the excellent products they sell. I have a used Titan exhaust and am surprised that it was not pre drilled for the EGT probes, any insight would be appreciated.

Once again, John,
In my invite I neglected to mention my Kolb Firestar II/ HKS 912 project is
near ready for inspection. Would like to have your "critique".
Hope you will stop by.
Andy
