If it is a Suburu obviously it was the 160 HP model or the Seawind
 would never take off. If so that engine is a hand grenade at 160 HP.
 I give it less than 10 hours plus or minus 9 at 160 HP. Most car piston
 engines >>

The Seawind is seriously underpowered at 200hp (was min recommendation!) I
can't believe it.

Perhaps it was a pumped up "200 HP" Suburu. Even more of a hand grenade
:-)
It took 2000 feet of the runway to break ground as I recall.
