Kloot, what sort of cost is involved ? I have the notion of fitting one of our new MK2 Cubby aircraft with a BMW. Regards Jean. Jean, if you only get the gearbox from Take-off, which is a proven must have, it will cost you R 37 000.00 landed. Complete engine, gearbox and wiring loom probably now in...

Slabfish, you should send this info to the EAA as well.
I am sure they will have members who might show interest.
