Tell Rusty to stop laughing. Yes, you have to be nuts to install an alternative engine.) Hi Tracy, I've just been waiting until you get back to work on the RV-8 to send in my EM-2 for it's mod :-) Seriously, it takes as long as it takes, and that's fine. It's just too much fun to pick on you :-) I don't regret the Lyclone decision for the RV-8 in the slightest, but I do admit that I'm getting a bit bored with the Lyclone FWF installation. Two weeks of cooling baffle construction will do that though. MAN do I hate building those things... I REALLY want to get back to the single rotor, and I find myself thinking more about it than the RV-8. I got the Hushpower II resonator yesterday, and it's 3 lbs lighter (91.5 oz total) than the original Hushpower II muffler. Priorities being what they are, I have to get the RV-8 out of my garage before I can do anything else with the single rotor. As it stands, I expect to have everything done to the RV-8 fuselage by the end of Sept, but I have the QB wings to finish at the hanger (1 week vacation will do that). I'll leave the fuselage at home until it's time to plug in the wings, because Oct is prime hurricane season, and the garage is safer than the hanger. One way or another, it will be flying by the end of November, which will make 7 months, and an estimated 950 hours total construction time. Cheers, Rusty (got tired of picking on Ken Powell) ------=_NextPart_000_0368_01C6CCE5.263914D0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Message
