I know couple of my freinds who are using modified auto engines for their
home built aircrafts. Engines they used are from the following model cars: Honda Civic 1.2 Lit Toyota Corolla Diesel, 1.8 Lit Daihatsu Charade Turbo Diesel, 1.0 Lit, 4 Cylinder (In fact I 'm considering using the same engine, very compact in design and light weight) If any one interested in gettin these engines please hit me I can arrange that. These engines could be zero miles refurbished or could be thousands miles on it, depending on price. All the above listed models are overseas models and you don't find them in US market. "tffy" wrote in message oups.com... This is for a hypothetical ultralight design, so just looking for suggestions here of where to look at... hopefully a 4-stroke, purchase price doesn't matter much, certification status doesn't matter either. Long time before overhaul matters A LOT... so, the longer the better. Is there anything out there in the 80-hp range? How about a motorcycle engine conversion - how long can those go before needing to be overhauled? Thanks! |
