After two years of waiting out a tepid economy, I finally have an engine block all my own!! Just picked it up today, and had to use the pully system that I built for the airframe to get it off the back of the truck. It's a mite ugly right now, but just you wait.
My very first question is, "How do I tell which model it is?"
Then I'll move on to, "It has a brand new Weber carb. Considering the development hours and dollars needed in both the engine and airframe, is it worth swithing to fuel injection or should I just get it in the air first?"
Finally, "It is currently using points. As above, is it worth the effort to switch it out?"
Regardless, the first project will be an engine mount. I think I've got a fairly decent idea of what a good mount should look like, and I've read all the stuff that has been published on the other list. But any additional input or even a drawing or two would be nice before I start burning steel tubing.
