I heard that someone put an O-290 on their Pietenpol. If anyone knows whothat is, let me know. I need to know about the engine mount, prop andcowling. Maybe I can get up to 8o mph.Copinfo(at)home.comTim CunninghamDes Moines, Iowa (515) 237-1510________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sun, 19 Dec 1999 08:50:47 -0600

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: 125 HP PietenpolI recently bought a 290G, intending to use it in a piet, but its awful big and heavy looking- I'm frankly intimidated from bolting it to a piet body. Also being old it would need some sort of rebuild, and being a ground power unit, I,m not sure what upgrades would be needed to make it suitable for the air. I also heard of someone using one.

Mark, I purchased some items from Replicraft Aviation and the workmanship isexcellent. I would not hesitate to recommend them. The last thing I boughtwas ribs for an Aeronca Chief. I get rushed on projects too and sometimesit easier to write a check than to build it yourself.
