Yes you can put in a 180 ph engine. I have one in my '65 model and
turning a C/S prop. Check http://www.airplains.com/. The downside with
our models is that you cannot get a GW weight increase and we are still
limited to 36 gallons of LL. I love my configuration. But, my conversion
is a Bush/Doyn and I would not recommend that only because of the
owners. I am not sure it is even still available.

Contact me if you would like more information.

Assuming it's time for overhaul . . .

With a 1967 H-model Skyhawk, does anyone on this NG know what the most powerful
replacement/upgrade can be added to this airframe?

I have the 145 HP Cont O-300 . . . would LOVE to get to 180 HP . . . can it be
done?
