Also, I am under the impression that while we are building experimental aircraft; we have a FAR requirement to have an engine that meets all current FAR regulations and notams, etc pertaining to engines etc. There are probably several things that must be done to that four-banger prior to legally flying the machine. Do this; rebuild the powerplant and run it on the teststand for four hours. I did. Then there are no limitations to taxi tests, flight testing and you can fly off into the sky and not look back to two months down time in the shop.
