Performance Engine did the engine and, yes, the plenum is the handiwork of Andy. I'm sure Andy would be happy to discuss doing one for other people too (he has the molds).
 
The engine is to be put on the dyonometer this week to confirm 400 plus HP at 2700 RPM and 38.5 inches MP.
 
I'll give a couple of projections, but until validated by flight test, they are projections.
 
FL 240 - 205 KIAS / 21GPH / 320KTAS / 368 MPH TAS
 
FL 240 - 200 KIAS / 17-18 GPH / 312 KTAS / 358 MPH TAS  
 

Wow, Lynn!

 

She’s a beaut! Although, as pretty as your airplane looks, I like the looks of your engine even more! That monster makes my heart race. Can you give us a few details about the engine and the custom plenum? Is that some of Andy’s work, or are you responsible for all that beautiful carbon fiber? Do you have any target performance numbers?

 

Drooling with Envy,

Mike Hutchins
