Has anyone ever heard of a Lycoming o290 ever being mounted to a kolb?  I just picked up a zero time o290d at an auction. (125hp)

Bryan, You didn't mention what model Kolb, but the short answer is no. At an installed weight of almost 250 lb. it's a tad heavy for the airframe of any model Kolb. Better to trade it for something else. MHO

Thanks Rick, that confirms my suspision.  I have a firestar right now, but I want to build a 2 seater.  Maybe a Kolbra.  



I had no intensions of buying the Lycoming, but it showed up at an auction and went remarkably cheap.
