Hi Everyone
I had a Suzuki AT10 Turbo engine mounted in my Bushbaby 500 but the gearbox sits to low resulting in only 3 inches of prop ground clearance when the tail is horizontal with a Warp Drive 3 blade ground adjustable prop. To change the prop is an option but then it is a 68" and I don't know if that will really give me enough clearance and the recommended prop size is a 72" Putting larger tires on is another option having 600-6 at the moment but once again how much clearance will I get by putting on 850-6. I had a Rotax 582 in but that seized up and is also under powered for my purposes. The other option will maybe to fit an extended landing gear. If I raise the engine then the visibility will be effected and the cowl will have to be raised. I have spend a lot of money on this project and has burned my fingers through out by getting advise and work done by "experts" Has anyone had similar issues and a best solution or suggestion please?
