As we discussed on the telephone I am interested in the possibility of
completing your aircraft.
I would like further details and will make a decision, with the Boss

Regrettably, the relationship with my Europa partner has deteriorated,
and I
cannot afford to buy him out and finish the aeroplane.

Does anyone understand the real differences between the Rotax 912ul and the
914? As far as I can determine, they are the same engine except for the
turbo. The displacement and the pistons seem to be the same. is the 914
beefed up in some way to take the extra strain from the turbo? Has anyone
heard of an after market turbo for the 912?

Curtis & other Europaphiles,
Oops, hit the wrong button on that previous transmission.
The main difference between the 912 and 914 are different compression
ratios due to the different pistons and (I believe) connecting rods.
The three engines 912, 912S and 914 all have different compression
ratios.
Of course, the exhaust systems are quite different due to the
presence of the turbo.
There are also differences in the lube system to support the special
lubrication needs of the turbo.
There may be other differences.
Good building and great flying,
Bob Borger

The Twinmax carb balancer can be bought for $87.95 at

Do I need to buy the 5 or 6 mm adapter for the Rotax 914?

Not Correct!
From the Rotax aircraft website at www.rotax-aircraft-engines.com
Both the 912 and the 914 are 1211cc and 9:1 ratio. The 912S is
different at 1352cc and 10.5:1
All three use the same crankshaft and connecting rods (they are a
single unit and cannot be separated) p/n 888164. The 912 and 914 used
79.5mm dia piston p/n 996549 and the 912S uses 84mm p/n 88838. there
is also a difference in the piston pins and rings. Some earlier 912
and 914 engines use crank p/n 996583.
cheers
