Actually, Sed, look at the specs in the link you gave. The thing is only 155 pounds installed and makes 65 hp at 2600 rpm. That would allow you to swing a pretty large (wood) prop. Functionally speaking this may not be the worst Kitfox engine.


Now as far as support or parts are concerned, that could be a very different story...
