I think the real problem with a 2si engines is parts availability.   They are 
not supposed to be used on man carrying craft, though we all know they  are.  
If someone insists on an inline 3 cylinder 2 stroke for aircraft,  then Hirth 
has a couple that put out a lot of power.  Stillnot the best  engine for a 
KR for the reasons Oscar mentioned. Kevin GoldenHarrisonville, MO.   In a

KR> 2Si 2-stroke engine

2016-12-10 Thread Ronald Wright
The fuel burn on a 2 stroke is a lot higher than the VW/Cont..  Plus, you have 
to carry 2 stroke oil when travelling..

 Don;


 The 3-cylinder 2Si 2-stroke was the featured engine for the
 "Lightning Bug" composite 1-place homebuilt.? A zippy
 little plane, you can Google it, but the problem is that the
 2-strokes are quite a bit lighter than any of the 4-strokes
 that are typically employed on KRs so it would require a
 longer engine mount and cowling for W? Probably
 not as exaggerated as Mike Ladigo's turbine engine powered
 KR, but longer than a VW or Corvair mount.
