Anyone with the time and interest who might be able to help out a fellow builder, drop me a line at the email below. Please do not respond to this message to reply.

It was on a web site, but I have lost this now. Does anyone have a listing of the various weights of the 540 engines? ie. difference between say a C and a K?

Call their marketing people . FYI the C4B5 is listed at 375 lbs and is the lightest 540 made. There are a couple at 396 the 430+. AEIO540's (angle valve) are 475 lbs.

I purchased a new high tech battery for my Rocket for $32. It is the sealed recumbent gas recovery type. Fit's in the Rocket battery box, and so far so good. It has started my IO-540 under some difficult starting conditions near 100F, and has never failed to deliver a really good punch! If you contact me off list, I will have the number, model, etc. in a couple of days. But the guys at Sunn in Jacksonville, FL, know what you want. Really economical shipping as well. Seems like $6.50 or so. Les Featherston HRII number 88 "Airgasm" (It is!) N206KT (It will!)
