How many Lycomings built?

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the reply! I joined the flyrotary list a few days ago, I
just haven't introduced myself yet. I tend to lurk and read as much as
possible, but I imagine I'll pipe up when it's time to lay out some
cash for the engine. I've read John Slades website with much interest,
and have pored over his install and test experiences. Unless there's a
big shift between now and the end of my build, I'm guessing the design
of the scoop/cooling system will be my biggest hurdle, but heck,
they're not experimental aircraft for nothing, right?

I've definately got an open mind on the adjustable props. I too am
very interested in the shortened takeoff (The Cozy is usually quoted as
having a 1,500 foot takeoff and landing roll because it's a pusher),
and the more I think about it, the more I want that CS prop. The main
reason I'm shying away from it at the moment is that I'm concerned
about the added complexity (I've already got an experimental airframe
AND engine) and I've heard some things about Ivo props that makes me
want to do more research before spending money, but time will tell. I
changed that item to be a little less set in stone, and I will keep an
eye on it.

Best regards,

Ben Hallert
