Bruce, Is that at Gross weight? What altitude were you able to achieve on your normally aspirated R-2100? (The high compression version) What clime rate are we talking about on take off from the

I have the Revmaster that Paul had and am going to put in my airplane with no changes. Have not done it yet because of my injury . the engine is 75 Hp. I have a friend who is going to help with this

Roy Marsh's KR2S was flying with a Revmaster R-2100D Turbo and has some significant time on it with good success.  It has changed owners in the last couple of years but I know then engine/airframe

Mike Your welcome. Always nice to be appreciated. Let me know how you get on? How about posting some pictures? Clive
