I found a KR2 with retractable landing gear that needs some TLC and a lot of sanding and was wondering why the 'specs' talk about a VW2100 motor that has a cruise of 180mph with 3.8gph fuel consumption, is this a type 4 bored out or a type 1 stroked and bored? While looking at type 1 and type 4 engines I noticed the cylinders on a type 4 have a bigger gap allowing better air flow but the engine overall weight is 17 lbs more then a type 1, so which engine should I invest in? I still have to pickup the KR2 and was wondering what is the height of the firewall.
Thanks for any advice, I enjoyed talking with Mrs. Robinson and look forward to flying this jewel one day. Kevin Angus SLC, Utah
