I'm finally getting ready to assemble rx-7 to go into my w8 tailwind.
Would
like to use my existing motor mount and gear legs with modifications
to use
rx-7. This would mean a 60" diameter prop. I've been flying this
prop/90 hp
cont. combo for 40 years. I really hesitate to increase gear length
because
of the excellent results I have had in the past.

Please sign me up for  acre .

Thank You,

Wow a 60 inch prop should turn 8000 engine RPM for take off using a
2.85:1
gear box. With a p-port that would be close to 275 HP. Quite
spectacular.

And if you don't enlarge the ailerons and rudder, your first takeoff
could
be really spectacular :)
