question about engines
Morgans wrote: The higher HP is a major reason, since you rarely see flat engines with HP ratings of more than a bit over 300 HP. There are many radial engines that are much larger than that. Lycoming built a 12-cylinder opposed engine. I don't think it ever went into production. There's a picture of it he http://www.prime-mover.org/Engines/Images/lyco1230.jpg The home page for a bunch of interesting engines, including Lycoming auto engines: http://www.prime-mover.org/Engines/Pictures.html Dan
