djpilot Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Hi, I am looking for a running engine for a non-aircraft project in the 65-100hp range. Would prefer closer to the 100hp mark, but anything will do. As this will never fly, the standard aviation requirements etc are not an issue. Thanks in advance G Turner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Koreelah Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I have a VW 1600 adapted for aero use. About 60hp. Lyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djpilot Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 Hi Lyle, what would the all up weight be? Can I get a little more than 60hp out of it? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Koreelah Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 My records say the basic engine is 68kg. There are VW experts around who could squeeze more than 60hp out of a 1600, but that would probably require max revs with a smaller diameter prop, or a gearbox, hence more weight.

smokeybear Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I have an o-200 continental in my 150 Cessna that may suit. 330 hrs since top end overhaul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
