It is a Midwest P-port single rotor. About 40 to 50 HP with PSRU.
Air cooled rotor with blower.

Now Diamond Engines. Used in motor gliders in Europe.

Paul Lamar ...No rotor no motor.

Paul,

Is that thing connected to the back the water pump?  Why is there
another air filter in back?

-Ben

That is not a water pump.
That is the intake to a centrifugal air pump that cools the
rotor.

It would generate 20% more power with a longer intake
runner.
