Re: Valin Thorn's info on the Theilert engine
 
    I can see two problems with this engine.  One is that it is not yet flying, and we all share a certain skepticism about unproven engines.  Granted they seem to be doing OK with their 135hp model, but 135ph and 310hp are quite different critters.
 
    The second problem is weight.  At a whopping 625 pounds, I don't know how you'd achieve proper c.g. in a Legacy, or in a lot of other aircraft, for that matter.
