Gday.....

The Sonerai is powered by a volkswagon 2180 cc aircooled four...This weighs
165 pounds and gives 75 hp at 3200rpm. The biggest engine they put in them
is a 2.6 aircooled VW which weighs 190 pounds and I think puts out about
85 - 90 hp.. I have been looking on the internet for any info on the cut
down rotory, so any info or advice would be much appreciated..

Thanks
Matt

Looks like it is in the ball park Matt. A one rotor should give about 90
HP and weigh right around 200 pounds depending on accessories chosen.
