Sorry for the commercial, but feel this is the best audience to advertise
my firewall forward package. I am a retired Pratt engineer and still feel the
rotary is the GA engine of the future, but have lost the "fire in the belly" as
Tracy C puts it to be one of the pioneers. Am approaching 70 and do not have the
energy to stay after it like a true "Rotorhead". Would rather fly at this point
as to experiment!
The installation has been relatively trouble free once I got past a bad
DPDT switch that was burning control chips in the EC2. The coolant temp runs
marginal on 90+ days. Oil temps are very good. Flew the 40 hours off in minimum
time and have flown 10 hours since.
Major components:
Engine: 13B by Bruce Turrentine. Second Gen 6 port, streetported, 9.4:1
high compression rotors, 2 peice/2mm apex seals. Price new $4k.
Gearbox: RWS RD-1B $2990
Controller: RWS EC2 EFI $875 ( latest updates, auto tune)
Engine Monitor: RWS EM2 large screen $1050
Engine Mount: Conversion Concepts $1180
Muffler: Flowmaster Hush Power II $180
Sensenich Prop $975
Griffin Al Radiator $415
Sam James Cowl $550 ( was a 2nd with minor dry spot)
LS1 coils $180
Intake manifold base $100
Many other small items not listed, but necessary to "fly"
The major items listed come to ~ $12500. Will sell at a very large
reduction. Make any reasonable offer and it is yours plus the many hours of
saved time for you. You can see pictures of installation at Tracy's web site by
looking under recent developments and click on Bernie's RV9 project.
