    MIke,

    I really appreciate your reply.   I hope things go well for you.     I think the honda engine is a great choice and I hope for experimental aviation that Jan has more success with Viking that he had with the subarus.   I am a true fan of people using experimental airframes and auto conversions if they want.   Good flying to you sounds like a great project!  

    P.S. I have an RV6A in my shop that is completed.  I am seriously thinking of selling it and switching to a Zenith 750 as I know have enough for a short grass strip at my house.    When I started the RV6a I did not have that...

    Mike,

    I got to thinking about your comment about putting a deposit on the viking engine and hoping to get it in the spring.    Was that because they don't have it available until then?   I was just curious about their delivery time frame?

    Michael,

    I sure appreciate the info.    It means more to me from builders that things at Viking are OK than from them.    I am leaning on buying their gearbox, but was somewhat relulctant due to past issues.   Sounds like this are OK there now.
