    Subject: Rotec water cooled heads for 3300 Jabiru
    Group, A friend in Oz turned me on to this issue, of Jabiru 3300 heads needing re- torquing and becoming deformed due to excessive heat. I don't know how much of an issue this is, as I'm not yet at the engine install and run stage on my Lightning, but I'm definitely interested in Rotec's developments. Has anyone else had any issues with high CHT temps and are you having to re -torque the heads on a regular basis? Here's the very first You Tube video that I saw on that subject. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfftfKg0yvo&NR=1 This is a solution that if true, could make the 3300 a much better engine a nd would keep temps down and extend its longevity. If anyone else has heard of this, or has tried it, let's talk about it. Food for thought. Lots of f ood.

    Subject: Rotec water cooled heads for 3300 Jabiru
    Real estate and professional home inspections are my business, my bread and butter. Are you saying I can't build or fly a Lightning? The one I'm build ing is my third home built project, and I'm currently flying one I built fr om plans. I've also been licensed since February, 1974. The fact I forgot to remove my signature means nothing.
