Mark,

Mine is a 24 inch stretch but has the stock KR2 wing.  Mine is
actually 4 inches shorter than stock if I remember correctly.
I think the plans call for an 8 inch tip beyond the 36 inch end rib
but I went 4 inches on each tip.  

The results were just fine.  I was getting 750 fpm (uncalibrated and
unvarified at this time)  climb while only turning a weak 2200 rpm 
with the 0-200.  My KR has a 765 empty weight, I weigh in at 200,
and I had probably 12 gal of fuel, for a total of approx 1025 to
1050 pounds.  

I'm hoping Ed ships my prop back this week and I'll start posting
some measured performance numbers.
