Engines - long

[Bob Pastorello]

As much as I *love* the OS 1.60, and have it working very satisfactorily (no - I am NOT sponsored, either!), the 1.60 in a rear exhaust would really be a significant improvement in permitting lots of designs to use the 1.60.  The bigger crankcase, better bearing life, lower nitro and more power, reliable starting....like Richard said - we just need a RE version.
    Help me out, Jason!!!

  I'll pass this along and see what happens....but just in case, don't hold
  your breath just yet...lol.

  I think I still have a Hanno, although it might be lost in FL at my dads.
  That was the best motor I ever had, bar none. The 140's and 160's have been
  great, but the Hanno just never quit anything, even with a 1/2 coil of plug
  element.

  OK--Will accept rumors!  We just need a big Hanno. Or just hone out the 140
  a little. Or stroke it a bit. Or both. 180 in a 140 case would do. Pumped, 2
  plugs, SS bearings and a nice simple linear carb with 5 HP on 15% stump
  pulling capacity. Cheap.
