Got the engine complete, and it is coming out at 148lb. It includes
 starter, alternator, redrive, carburetor, exhaust muffler and all pulleys.

 My design goal was a FF weight of 170lb, it will be very close, with the
 cooling system still to be added.

 Excellent Richard. A 100 HP O-200 Chinese/Continental  aircraft engine weighs 200 pounds.

 BTW is that a new front cover casting?
 Perhaps it will work on a 2 rotor.

Richard.

Great.  I wish I could find a lighter starter for you.  Is the starting torque significantly less than a two rotor?

Doug in Japan

How about the starter from this?
