I scanned the 60 pages or so of info I have on the continental packette enginethat is about the size of an O-200 from a GPU. Does anyone need a copy of theCD? It is yours for a ten buck donation to EAA chapter 25.Chris Bobka________________________________________________________________________________

It was a GPU designed out of the 0-200 and O-300. They are wierd in thatthey have only one spark plug, the intake port is on top of the cylinder andare otherwise strange. Carb is mounted above the engine. The cranks can beused as esperimental O-200 cranks but the flange for the prop is thinner andneeds stabilization such as a steel prop spacer to give it more support. Idon't know that much about them other than what is on the CD.I apparently am the only person on the web that has any info at all so Ijust assume share it.chris----- Original Message -----
