    Why become a Subscribing Member?

    • In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).
    • Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

470 lbs-That sounds great if you can afford the alloy block and heads. I guess my estimate is fairly conservative . An alloy block saves about 70 lbs I hear, and the heads about 40andI won't be using a PSRU and I'll have a fairly light prop.


I should move this into the firewall section by now....


there ya go :) [/beej]
