Les Smoot (who has worked for the military I think) claims he has rebuilt
over a thousand 4A084s. He still builds and modifies them. He has put
together an EFI package for the 084, most of it off-the-shelf from a vendor,
that he feels produces around 50 hp. He claims that he gets 230-240 static
thrust from these direct drive engines. It wasn't 100% clear to me if he was
talking about the generic engine or his EFI models. Sounded like he was
talking abut the generic version.
I have a great video he made. He talks about his EFI setup. He demonstrates
his EFI engine running. Sounds SO GOOD! I would like to post it where folks
can get to it but it is 287 MB. any ideas?
