Is Eric Large of Holland, MI on the list?  I heard a third-hand rumor that you’re exploring a new engine alternative.  Care to share info with the list?

I have it by someone that there is a builder in Nevada that is planning on
installing an alternative engine. I am counting on this as I am planning on
that engine option as well.

I hope that this is not a whole lot of BS as there have been
people/companies with grand plans that never materialize. I hope to get
away from the reciprocating engine variety. I also hope I will not be the
only individual on the fringe of exploration, but I'd be willing to take the
chance.

Ooh, let's not waste any more electrons debating Innodyn!

I heard the fellow in Holland, MI was planning on using a "Volkswagen
diesel" . . .

And of course Dave Hertner in London, Ontario is planning Corvette
power. (according to Frappr)

Sorry Tim, I may have joined the group too late and don't know what you all
discussed. What I am interested in is any negative information you might
pass along. Did I miss any, I think the company before them went south.....

For what its worth I've been trying to get a VW V10 diesel (tdi) for nearly 2 years and hope to have it in 6 weeks or so.  I'd rather have the new Audi V8 tdi, but probably can't get it for another year.  I'm just starting to build a front cowl buck and nearly finished on the bucks for a center console, avionics panel and an overhead console.  I'm not holding my breath and suggest nobody else does on my account.  Anyone interested in offline emails its: catalyticeric(at)yahoo.com (catalyticeric(at)yahoo.com)

p.s.  Congratulations Tim you're an inspiration during many tribulations!!

One wise tech counselor once told me. Don't put anything on your airplane
until you can find 10 examples at OSH and most of the owners are happy with
it, Unless you want to do the R&D for the company you are buying the stuff
from or you want to be in the R&D business. Either is OK but know which way
fits your desires.

You have heard correct. I am planning on putting an alternative engine into
the 10. I am going with the Cosmo 20B fuel injected, no turbos, and only
planning on spinning it at 6000 RPM.

I looked at the Innodyne but they had a lot of sweet talk, but no real
performance information. Never would give a real fuel flow, and it would be
so easy. Fill it up fly for two hours and fill it up again. That would be
a rough idea. Much hot air, pun intended, and no data.

Like Bob Kaufmann, I am installing a Mazda 3 rotor 20B Wankel engine in
my -10. I believe there are 2 others in Texas who are also planning
Mazda rotaries in their -10's.
