1.3 L Suzuki Engine

If anyone has used a 1.3 L Suzuki engine in a CH 701, I would like to know how well the installation went. Did you have to build a custon cowling? What prop did you use? What kind of radiator did you use? Are you pleased with the performance? Would you recommend this engine?

 

Any comments would be appreciated!

Peter,

 

Thanks for your reply. What kind if cruise speed do you get?  How many gallons per hour of fuel do you burn?

 

Thanks,
