Well, has anyone considered using the French JPX engine.  The model
4TX75/A is a 4cyl 85hp@3000 rpm direct drive engine?  It will run up to
92hp @ 3300 rpm. It will run max continous : 80hp at 2900 rpm.  It sports
a 20 amp alternator.  It weighs in at 178 lbs.  It costs 56,470 FF or
$9,985.00 US.  It seems a good alternative to the Rotax.  I'm trying to
get the rebuild costs ect. to see how that compairs. Any comments?  The
US rep, Leroy Enterprises, will be at Sun N Fun in April. I will stop by
and look this one over.
