(Paul Rice) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 08:04:48 PM PST US Subject: Engines-List: Ram Engines...Good? or Bad? From: "darinh" I asked this on the Kitfox list because that is what I am building and contemplating a EA81 - Ram Conversion. The question is: What is the general concensus on Ram Engines and the EA81? Does anyone have any experience with Ron and what are your thoughts of his product? I am looking for an engine with good power that will get me in and out of the backcountry in my Series 7 Kiftox. I like the looks of his website and the specs on his engines...can anyone tell me if he really is getting 140 hp out of the EA81 and does it really come in at ~200 lbs installed? If so, it seems that it should outperform any Rotax hands down! Anyone with any insight/experience/flight time with one of his engines, your comments and advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Darin Hawkes Kitfox Series 7 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=102714#102714 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:17:48 PM PST US From: "Paul Rice" Subject: Re: Engines-List: Ram Engines...Good? or Bad?
