I being stupid as a hell bought an engine ,a rotax 377 that was used "less tyhan 100 hrs" in a wind tunnel in a trackter configuration. I must say that i had never seen a 377 and all i kneww was that they produced 35 hp and the general consensus was that the 377 was a good solid engine and that the plane I was building would be very happy with it .i am building a KOlB Firefly a pusher and i came to find out that everybody says that being a KOLB it would never work unless it had fan cooling!
My question is has any one ever changed a freeair 377 or 447 to fan cooling ? How many parts other than the fan and the cooling shrouds are there to change ? If any one has please lend me your experence . thanks in advance Chris
p.s. I also read somewhere online that the aluminum shrouds are no good anybody know why?
