With a pump like the 140RX would be nice =)

But I'll settle for RE right now.

  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.
