  Hi Richard:

 I am in the beginning process of installing a Mid West Twin Rotor in
my BD 5. This engine produces 110 HP and weight 121 Pd. I beleive
that the reduction drive can be removed as it is not needed
perhaps bring the weight in the 100 range. I will still have the
Exhaust, Cooling system, Oil Tank, and duct Work for weight to be
considered.   Harry Batson

Hi Harry,
Would you like to talk with someone who has installed a MidWest
(Norton) rotary in a BD-5?
If you send me your e-mail address I'll check and see if he is
available. I've got a Honda
powered BD-5 and would like to switch to a rotary but cost and
availability are against me.
Cheers,
John Lewis
