Thanks Paul,
   When I read the story, I imagined the 0-200 as a larger, more
powerful engine. The fact is, that the 100 HP Subaru has become the norm
in Gyros, with hundreds flying, so I don't know why such a big deal was
made about this installation.  I'm tempted just to go ahead and buy a
13B, even if I don't have anything to put it in yet !  Either that, or
build a Gyro out of steel, with all the extras, so that it would need
that much power !

George (who is anxious to rebuild one of them thar Rotary critters)

I suspect a 13B would not be much more weight than a soob as they need
PSRU's and rads too. What do they weigh?
