Starts were amazingly strong. The reason I cannot provide the performance data was because I also flowed the heads, modified the cam, installed 10.5 to 1 pistons as well as dual electronic ignition and another different 3 blade scimitar blade to the IO360 Lycoming. The overall performance was increased about 6 knots at cruise and performance improved from 1800 fpm climb at sea level to 2,700 fpm. That was really impressive. Basic empty weight of this straight 360 is 1,210 lbs. I weigh 130 lbs.
