A Viking engine in a Kitfox maybe sooner then you think!

For my Part yes you got for what you pay, but I can not understand why should I pay the price of a all car for a motor..... it don't come with electric windows, power stering and a radio? you could buy a brand new car engine with it's drivetrain for 2000.$ if the Viking works maybe Rotax will lower is price.

Jan Egg. may be have tune down some consumer but, I look out on the net for unsatisfied customer and I did not found many (for Viking engine), and if you but a Rotax 912 and you want to get your money back not sur that the salesman will have a wide smile!

Anyway my trust is in John Mcbean, he will try it and if he tell us that this engine is delivering what we expect and the center of gracity is ok for the Kitfox..... if and only if John give his two thumbs up and it come in a front firewall kit, then I be reassure to buy this new engine.....
