This is intriguing. i like the price and the power, but it does cut
into the useful load a bit. What are the other drawbacks to the added
weight? I wonder how complicated fitting it is, as compared with a 912

Let's keep this thread going. i don't need and engine for a while yet,
but this is very interesting.
