Those babies are EVERYWHERE here in the States. Cheers, Dwight (talk about your HARLEY "nose-in-the-air" attitude....the riders of THESE machines REALLY think their sh*t doesn't stink, boy!!!) Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

You can find out here, http://www.rotecradialengines.com/ there is a link to email them for a quote. Some videos of their engines in action too. Considering the market and the problems getting aircraft stuff certified, there is no doubt that they cost a lot. Let's hope there's intelligent life somewhere in space 'cause it's buggar all down here. -- Monte Python
