An alternative engine project is certainly not for everyone or even most,
whose primary objective is to get an airplane in the air. But, for those
who find it a challenge and are interested in something different its
kick- A_ _ fun. Just make certain you are aware of the risks and
challenges not to mention the frustration of chasing a solution.

and task of assessing the vendor you purchase products from. Word of
mouth from customers is probably the best source but, even there you need
to separate real problem from a customer perceptions. Some customers
will bad-mouth a vendor when the real problem is the customer s lack of
understanding or misunderstanding the true situation. But, if a major of
a vendor s customers are unhappy, there is likely a good reason for it.

Right on! Let's strive to stock the AeroElectric-List
archives with finely sifted ideas rich in recipes for
success and illumination of those ideas which should
be avoided. Thank you for this objective enhancement
to the conversation.

There are a bunch of us who are not happy with the current source of electronics, powerplants and for that matter aircraft design. We are the ones who push the envelope and try new things. Progress transfers over, in cars it is "todays racecars are tomorrows streetcars". As for us in the OBAM arena this timeframe is 'FAA slow'. <GG> For those who are really interested I have a 25 minute video on the web showing alot of my conversion, the good and bad. !! Grab a cold soda pop or an adult beverage and get a good chuckle at my first attempt at video work.

I tried to respond to you directly via the address that you listed on this
list had but it got bounced- here is what I wrote:
Hey there Ben,
I had a look at your video today- really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing the
data. I am the Jay from South Africa
Later on I'll probably ask you a few other questions- what is the HP rating
of your engine by the way?

Jay, the basic engine does not change. I can detune it a little more but that puts it in the V-6 Chevy range and the great guys at Belted Air guys have that market well figured out and units ready for sale. Just by changing the cam profile and the redrive ratio I can take my package and bump it up to the 450 HP range for take off and five minutes or so, then throttled back to 400 or so for constant cruise. Weight will not change, of course fuel burn will. If you need further info email me (at) www.haaspowerair.com
