I have a 912 on my slingshot almost ten years now. Just make sure you put the proper shims under the rear mounts. The rear needs to be abt 3/4 of an inch higher than the front or it will be extremely stick heavy. I will send exact measurements if you need them. If your cage is one of the last ones built it may have the corrected mounts. Ted cowan 912 ul zoom zoom. P.s. I have a great little seven rib firestar for sale w/503 and ten gal tank.

Subject: HKS to 912 Slingshot
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.

Subject: RE: Aileron Gap Seals
The best method for durability is the same procedure
outlined in old Kolb Aircraft instruction manuals. Tape is
temporary.
I have an aileron gap seal that is 23 years old and 3,300.0+
hours. Another that is 15 years old and I don't know how
many hours on that one. Both are showing some age, but
still serviceable.
This system is more work intensive than tape, but looks and
performs the best, in my humble opinion.

Ted:
What do you mean by "extremely stick heavy"?
