The corvair mount for the sonex from SPA is $1200 but that wasn't the point. I was just using the mount as an example. Years ago the sonex mount was $1000 and the engine was $5995. The point is that all engine costs have gone up. There are no longer people doing corvair fwf for $6000 cjust like the...

Have you priced the parts to put together an aerovee fwf package lately? It isn't exactly a cheap motor anymore either. I was shocked to see that just the aerovee mount is now almost $2000. I'm not going with the corvair because I think it will be a cheap solution. I'm going with it because I think...

I was going down the WW Corvair path to power a Pietenpol. Got at workable core w/heads for $200. Bought the manual at OSH. A few more parts online like a cooler and back plate. I then realized I was going to be into this about $10K by the time I had the engine I wanted with all the new parts from S...

But after listening to the podcast, if you don't come away with a warm feeling that Prince props has the right customer att...

I've always been fascinated by rotary engines. I hope this doesn't stall out like the D-Motor did.

First time poster...I have been looking at several Jabiru equipped Sonex for sale on Barnstormers. I'm fairly new to the Sonex world but understand the Jabiru came with either solid or hydraulic lifters.. is one of these preferred over the other ? On another topic... any idea about what serial numb...

I know of a really sweet Waiex with late Jabiru solid lifter (like mine) that is available. PM me if you are interested. No, its not my plane, but probably one of the nicest Waiexes I've seen.
