Pietenpol-List: Pietenpol Powerplant

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: dpilot
Subject: Pietenpol-List: Pietenpol PowerplantI'm looking at the possibility of putting an EA81 Subaru motor up front somewhere between 70 & 90 HP. My question is, is this going to be to much power for my peit or will it be alright, I don't want to rip the wings off. Has anybody used one before and if so how did it work out. Thanks for your helpGary New Orleans________________________________________________________________________________Date: Wed, 17 May 2000 10:54:54 -0700 (PDT)

Hey Gary, Another Gary here! You should be okay with that HP. There are folks on the list who are running O-200 Continentals! I plan on at least a C85 myself. Power is Goooooood!Gary Meadows________________________________________________________________________________
