Questions, Jabiru 2200 to AeroVee Swap

Postby HenryVoris » Sat Dec 27, 2014 12:45 am

I am looking at a Sonex to buy... It has a 2200 Jabiru. I would like to re-engine to an AeroVee. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm assuming (I know what it means) that it's firewall forward... What about the cowl... engine mounts, etc??? Thanks in advance.
Aloha,

You will need a new engine mount, and probably a new cowl too. The cowl is matched the installed engine. Probably not much else.
