I beleive the manufacturer did fit the Jab engine to aircraft used in Europe, but cooling seems to be a problem for hotter regions.� I think the cowl would have to be redesigned to cater for an air cooled engine.� Here is the answer I got from Fantasy air some time ago...

��� Hello Dave,
�
��� We do fit the Jabiru engine to Scandinavian countries. It has very bad reputation in hot countries, because of overheating problems etc.
��� We had to make some adjustments in engine installation to avoid the overheating problems and it was fine, but still not in countries with hot weather.�Rotax ��� ��� engines are�MUCH more reliable.�
��� There is no price difference currently between Allegro with Rotax or Jabiru.
�
��� So, we are sorry but we do not want to sell Allegros to South Africa with Jabiru engine.
�
��� Kind regards,
��� Marcela and Josef

Hi all
����� Does any body know if there has been a Jabiru engine fitted to the Allegro
yet. I would prefere the lighter weight of the jabiru engine.
