Hello Michel,

Typed one comment to you, then lost it.

You should add Bob McDonald to your friends list also. Bob has the Rotax . I don't know if you have the HomeBuiltHELP DVD's or not, but Bob's plane and engine installation is on the one video of the engine install. I've gotten a lot of answers from Bob on the engine and instruments.

Hope to hear more from you soon.

Jim
