WANTED: 65-100hp motor

[djpilot]

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

I have a VW 1600 adapted for aero use. About 60hp.

Hi Lyle, what would the all up weight be? Can I get a little more than 60hp out of it?

 

Regards

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.

 

Regards, Lyle

I have an o-200 continental in my 150 Cessna that may suit. 330 hrs since top end overhaul.
