Hi Blake, attached below is message from
my friend, Oly in St. Louis
Mo. (He has a very
interesting rotary powered bird - an all metal Vari-Viggen ) about the
FWF package from a accident. Turns out its from an Rv-8 rather than an
RV-7 as I first thought.

MAZDA CONVERSION • $4,700 • WIFE SAYS SELL IT!
• Real World Solutions Mazda engine conversion, everything
firewall forward, as removed from an RV-8. Approximately 70 hrs. t.t. on this
installation, aircraft had a hard landing after eng. quit due to fuel
starvation. Engine was not running when plane landed in a foot and a half of
snow. Wood prop, broke one blade. Some damage to radiator tank, everything else
looks good. I wish to sell this engine as a complete package, and all engine
gages and switches, computer controller, everything goes with it. This engine
should work well on any airplane in the 150-180 H.P. category. • Contact Robert
