Changing from 582 to 912
I am not happy with the performance of the 582 on my Thunderbird.
If I change to 912 what will the result be in performance.!!!
Tx for helping

Just the idea from a 2stroke to a 4stroke says much!

Trevor is experimenting with a BMW motor too. Prototype should fly this week.

I am sure that Thunderbird with the BMW motor will be at the Kroon fly-in. Don't decide before you have seen it and have spoken to Johan about cost and performance.

Re: Changing from 582 to 912
Baie dankie vir julle hulp hiebo.
Ek het intussen op ' goeie gesag' verneem dat al sit jy n boiing engine in die ThunderBird dan cruise hy nog 60 mph.
Want hy is gebou vir n 582 engine..
So ek gaan die aerie so hou en my nonsense los..
