I've got a lead on a 912 but need a prop / oil cooler/ (i think my big
582 radiator will work / engine mount.
Any idea how much for these items or does anyone have them?
This is new to me. I have an EIS that i think would hook up to the 912
for monitoring vitals.
Is there anything else i would need. Will my cowlings all still work?
Gonna sell the firewall forward from kitfox model 4
582 grey zero time other than i did break in.
Carbs rebuilt when engine purchased.
c gearbox
3 blade wharp drive adjustable
From ROTAX-RECREATIONAL-ENGINES-LLC
Is it ok to post it for sale on kitlist? Not sure on the rules these days?
Thanks
Jared

Hey I just did this! Much fun. You'll certainly be happier with the 912
under heavy / hot / high conditions. Some of what I did:
* Prop depends mostly on your budget. The only difference is weight
and looks. They all perform the same. I used a Warp 3-blade 70".
* My oil cooler is an Earl's 21608AERL off Amazon. You can go smaller
if you want. (Mine's 5" high. I think you can go 3", depending on
location. I'm in the US desert southwest.)
* 582 radiator will work.
* Engine mount is made yourself or buy from Kitfox Aircraft. If you
buy from Kitfox Aircraft you'll have slight clearance problem
between the starter and the firewall right foot well. I made a
stainless blister to clear it. Some make their own motor mounts,
moving the engine forward a little to make the install easier. I
wanted my engine as far back as possible so the Kitfox LLC mount was
fine.
* I had the old GRT EIS. I sent it in to Grand Rapids and they
"refurbished" it to a model 2000 for $149 in March 2011. I had to
buy some more sensors too.
* I extended my forward cowl (radial type) 2" so it would be right
behind the spinner. You don't have to. I had an oil door on the top
cowl that I moved as well.
* What else you need depends a lot on what you get with the engine.
You may need:
o Oil tank (Rotax)
o Voltage regulator (Rotax)
o Exhaust system (Kitfox LLC)
o All the crap to put it together.
Sorry, I don't have prices for any of this stuff readily available and
they'd all be ancient history anyway.
Feel free to post "for sale" on this site, but you'll get more interest
on Barnstormers. Inquire on Team Kitfox for parts and accessories, as
well as here.
