Ive been reading Tracy Crook conversion guide that Ive found very
 interesting. Since I have about three more years to finish my Cozy, there
is
 time for me to do research about engines. I think the choices for me will
be
 either the Rotary or a XP-360.

 There is a subject that I would like to have some feedback from you: oil
 supply for the engine. The guide say that is recommended to disable the
 system that is included with the engine because is a potential source of
 failure, and premix the fuel with two stroke oil. My question is, how do
you
 accomplish that? Is that simple to put oil in the tank? Also, there is
 anyone using an alternate system, either the one that comes with the
engine
 or other that does not involve premixing fuel with oil?

 Thanks!

 It is best to use Mobile 1 fully synthetic in the
 engine and mix 2 ounces of 2 cycle oil in the fuel to lube
 the apex seals.

  Paul,

Mixing 2 oz of 2 cycle oil per how many gallons?

This is a big change, Paul.  Historically, the advice had been 1oz per US
gallon.  Is there new information on why the amount of oil should be
doubled?  Mark Steitle and I had a conversation about this while he was here
with his 20b Lancair -- he is also mixing at the 1oz:1 US Gallon ratio.
