OS 91FX

[Nat Penton]

Matt I will add additional  info. Have been running the 91FX over two years
and it will carry my 8+ lb airplanes to the moon. On fuel - was using
Ritches 20%, now 30%,idles under 1500. Pipe length- 26 to 28" depending on
which pipe, most power from ES 2 stk(1 9/16 OD), Favorite props 17X10N cut
to16" and 15.5X12, rpms around 7700. Using Hanno (same as 140RX) backplate
pump. Can be installed with simple tools and a little ingenuity. O yes 2
headshims. Stock bearings good for about 30 flts, Boca sealed well over 100,
leave all seals in place. Provide crankcase cooling for longer bearing life.
Have not tried 15CC Hatori or MACS but plan to. Headers are from Karl
Mueller,very nice.
