I am currently working on a Suzuki 3-cylinder auto-conversion. It has been dyno tested at 65hp and here are the horsepower and torque charts with comparisons to Rotax 582 and 618.(click for more info)

Life in 2013: Hi folks, I am putting in some updates about what's going on these days.
I have not been working on the plane since about 2006 when I semi-finished the right wing and hung it up from the ceiling in the garage.
In the last three years I bought a 1990 Miata which I spent two years restoring and had a blast driving it last summer.
I think about my plane sometimes and would like to finish it some day. It is in my house which is rented out and I have been living a 45min drive away from there for the last five years.
This makes it a bit harder to get over there to work for stretches at a time, and it also has some other junk in the garage I need to clean out.
I will be getting back into it in the spring after some cleanup.
Blue skies to all!
