Rebuild, assembled and dyno tested at. Unlimited Aero Engines, Fitchburg, Ma.It ran good on the dyno and is now pickled. I have a letter from Ron Mason (the designer). Stating this engine is fine for use in this aircraft if the fuselage is lengthened by 6 inches in the bays aft of the baggage compartment. I have confirmed this is done. So no problems using this engine.To complete the project. Wings need to be hung. Finish aileron cables in wings. (pulleys are installed). Run wiring in wings for the strobes and AOA indicator vane. Install pitot tube. Wing root fairings need to be fabricated (flat sheet alum.) Fuel flow test. Fill and test brakes. Check torque on everything. Safety wire on turnbuckles. Thats about it to be ready for fabric. I was planning on using Oratex fabric, but I am sure any system will work fine. The aircraft was never registered so you will be the manufacturer and get the repairman certificate. Bidder is responsible for all shipping, logistics and costs.
