    Subject: Engines
    --> Rocket-List message posted by: "Tom Martin" <fairlea@execulink.com> Guys Just keep in mind that some of these add ons may not fit in the standard cowlings. We know that the I0-540-C4B5, and some variations, fit the cowling. When you go to a different block or non "standard" sumps they may not fit the cowling and the standard exhaust system that John Harmon or Larry Vetterman supplies may not fit. This is not to say that you cannot make these changes but they could add a considerable amount of time, and probably weight, to the project. The other consideration with added HP is the potential for reduced TBO.

    Subject: Re: Engines
    --> Rocket-List message posted by: "Tom Gummo" <T.gummo@verizon.net> This is so true. My engine is a IO-540 J4A5. If you look it up, it states that it is the same as the C4B5 but was set up for turbo charging (My is not turbo charged). Anyway, I had to modify the firewall to make this engine work. I love the rocket, just wish there was some room between the engine and the firewall. It doesn't take much before there can be conflicts.

    --> Rocket-List message posted by: Fred Weaver <mytyweav@earthlink.net> It's so simple.... You just call Bart Lelond at Aerosport Power. You order an IO-540 D4A5 with one mag and one electronic ignition. You get a real nice, reliable, powerful engine built by some very good people. AND you can spin it up to 2750 for an absolutely FUN climb out from anywhere. Phone (250) 376-2955 www.aerosportpower.com Bart is also a Rocket builder and totally understands our requirements. When your engine arrives, it has already been run in and the logs give you all the pertinent data that your engine displayed. No leaks, drips etc... Just a nice engine, ready to bolt on and run. Right Larry?

    From: Boyd Braem <bcbraem@comcast.net>
    --> Rocket-List message posted by: Boyd Braem <bcbraem@comcast.net> Tom-- My goosed up LyCon engine (C4B5-EXP) has 1000 hr TBO, but I'll take that anytime for the boosted performance--maybe the doctor dropped me on my head when I was born--but, sh*t, man, I really like to go fast--and low--ask Gummi Bear--I have a photo of his F-4 Weasel doing a fairly hard turn with a wingtip about 2 ft AGL--it looks like it was taken with an automatic camera and from the topography it looks like Nellis Range (Red Flag). For the record, the photo had to be an optical illusion, as an experienced AF pilot never flies below minimums, tho Navy pilots do!--we have to--to protect our Commander-in-Chief (F-102, Delta Dagger, AF Reserves, if memory serves). And, besides, flaring when you land is like squatting when you pee (my apologies to any females reading this, but it's an old horse). Boyd--damn I'm dumb to post crap like this. do not archive On Saturday, November 8, 2003, at 09:24 AM, Tom Martin wrote: > --> Rocket-List message posted by: "Tom Martin" <fairlea@execulink.com> > > Guys > Just keep in mind that some of these add ons may not fit in > the standard > cowlings.
