I’ve accumulated too much rotary stuff and need to free up space to continue building my new turbo Renesis FWF. I purchased a RV8 Renesis FWF a few years back for the engine and gearbox. I’m keeping those items but need to clean out the rest.

 

The following items need to go. I still need to take a few pictures.

 

1.        RV8 engine mount with aluminum plate bed mount.

2.       Sam James rotary cowl. This was installed and flown. Intake hole may be in the wrong location. Lower cowl may have been modified for heat changer exit / cowl flap.

3.       Tech Welding heat exchangers. A double pass (front to rear) coolant exchanger. Not sure if oil cooler is single or double pass. I believe this is the same setup that Sam Hodges is flying in his RV7 and cooling well. The fiberglass ducts are bonded to the heat exchangers so they would need to be cleaned up if used in another location.

       Intake manifold is a very poor design but may have usable parts.

 

$1000.00 or best offer but you have pick it up in Austin.

 

I also have a fuel trailer that needs to go. I use it for mogas but it should not be stored in my hanger. We usually get advanced notice of hanger inspections and it has to be removed during that time. It’s about 50 gallons with good tires and buddy bearings. The nozzle works but needs to be rebuilt or a new one for about $25.00.  Good battery.  I purchased it from Mark Steitle for $350 and he purchased for the same amount from someone else on field. The trailer is not licenses and does not have lights. – I’ve purchased a new truck and plan to install a transfer tank soon for added convenience.

 

Don’t understand why my wife insists on parking her mustang in the garage?
