I flew hundreds of hours in my sling shot with a 582. powered it just fine.
had to cover the rad with tape according to the temps out side.
sometimes only one strip, sometimes four. had the oil injection and liked
it. put the 912 on and wow, zoom zoom. gonna pay for the
engine just in gas and oil savings. Ted Cowan, slingshot 912UL zoom zoom
