Rob,
: ((((
The inspection has been delayed to an undetermined time. My money has run thin for the moment, and due to engine overheating during testing, we are removing it for a complete teardown and inspection. It will be rebuilt when money allows. I am guessing about 60-90 days delay.
For any of you who are running liquid cooled engines, don't listen to the guys at EvansCooling. They may know their chemistry, but they don't know squat about engines. They told me it was OK to run up to 240 degrees with their propylene glycol coolant. They let on that the engine would be just fine. Their coolant was just fine. The engine tried to destroy itself to protect the coolant.
Head gaskets and pistons don't like temps over about 210. Nuff said.

Berni,
I won't comment on your engine choice. But I would heartily recommend the
AeroComposites prop. It is far and away the best one available. It is lighter,
stronger, and far more efficient than any of its competitors.
