Kitfox Model I W/Rotax 532

[Taildragger1]

Gentlemen I have an opportunity to buy this Plane locally in my area for 10K with only 80 Hours on the motor and Airframe. It has the series 2 wing along with a simple VFR panel. My question, does anyone have a line on the best CDI single Ignition conversion for this engine, or better yet where I might find a Rotax 582 with a DCDI I could trade out of it. I have access to a Rotax 583 CDI from a Ski Doo MACH 1 but I would need the Dual CDI Conversion along with the Dual Plug Head fly wheel and probably many other parts to go with it. Is there a conversion kit for a Rotax 583 Single Ignition to a dual CDI for less than trading out the 532 Points and Condenser single Ignition for a 582 Dual CDI engine? I look forward to all your replies.
Thanks

I just spoke with a very trusted Pilot and will be looking for a Rotax 582 to put in this plane if I purchase it.

I have a never ran 582 with dual ignition, 3-1 C gearbox, dual carbs, oil injection and electric start for sale. It was tore down and inspected and had new gaskets and seals put in it recently. Gray head, but half the price of a new blue head from Leading Edge or the other Rotax guys. Actually have another with 160 hrs as well that was just overhauled and has new pistons + I had a Kitfox 1 with a 582 and it was a rocket ship, and a fun flying machine. JImChuk

I'm also in the process of purchasing a model 1. I'm not finding any evidence of a POH on the web, does anyone have any leads? I found one for Model II. Anyone? Jim Chuk?
