Come on down.  I can give you the tail wheel at the same time and maybe I will 
have a Corvair running on the KR by then.

Pat,

I may be able to help.  I have converted N774A to tricycle gear and I gave the 
original gear (1974) to a friend.  He's out of town right now, but the gear is 
still in his hangar, with parts of another.  If you still need it, I'll ask him 
if he wants to part with it.  You can contact me off net at 
ankerst...@embarqmail.com.

fork) if you have a mind to sell it.

Pat,

I don't have the spring, but do have an old tailwheel and bracket, somewhat
bent, that you can have for shipping.

See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics 
See you at the 2011 - KR Gathering in Mt. Vernon, Il - MVN
There is a time for building and it never seems to end.

KR> BMW engine v VW and Corvair

2011-07-14 Thread phillip matheson
Phil- Tell me a bit more about your type 4 with a gear reduction
--
Pat my engine now has 350 Hours, is a type 4, Aluminium barrels, German 
sleeves, Chevy pistons, hyd lifters, twin CD cards,100 HP at 4000 rpm. I fly 
at 3600 every where, with 60 " Dia ground adjust Prop. (You Can get EFI 
engine as well) When I first installed it, it had 1.6:1 reduction, but I 
thought the prop speed was a bit slow for that prop, it is now 1.3:1 
reduction fitted to flywheel end of the engine, it has a VW engines design 
alternator built into the other end of the engine mounting brackets.
Check out , That is my engine on the web page, just before it first flight. 
Other info can be found on that web page. Two Youtude clips of my KR2.
Video 1 is my KR on take off with Belt drive- TURN UP THE SOUND.
Video 2 is the same engine with the first prototype Geared reduction, you 
can hear  the noise of the gear box, that was replaced with the belt drive. 
much smoother and less noise.
