[ercoupe-tech] Mods and LSA

[jackwhickman]

I am new to the group and looking at Ercoupe's to buy. I want an LSA. I have 
two questions about mods.  (1) Do metal wings on a 415C, indicate it is no 
longer an LSA, or another way to ask the question, can you metalize the wings 
without driving a 415C out of the LSA category?  (2) Can you modify a 415C to 
get a 90 or 100 HP engine and still qualify as an LSA? I am obviously new to 
Ercoupe's, any help is greatly appreciated.
