Such a lovely piece of mechanical art!

Could not agree more 👍👌

High performance jewelry. I'm extremely jealous.

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

@@richarddarlington1139 it's really a nice piece of kit

[@richarddarlington1139]

@@WarbirdPiLOT Yes, I can see that. I've had some limited experience with Saito engines. A friend of mine put a. 91 in a Senior Telemaster. It was actually too much power for the plane. We swapped it out for the .81. Perfection! Keep us posted, okay?

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

@@richarddarlington1139 You bet, running video will be posted 👍

It will go into a Flair Stearman PT-17.

[@helischorsch9786]

@@WarbirdPiLOT …that’s great, so it won’t be hidden by a huge cowling then👍👍👍

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

@@helischorsch9786 Yes, it will definitely be on display like it should 😁👍👌

[@ModelAV8RChannel]

That is man jewelry! Beautiful...appearance surpassed only by the sound. What is it going in??

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

I swapped out the Evo 7-77 in my Stearman for this. A bit more reliable powerplant 👍👍

That is purdy.

[@theflash0815]

What I don't understand is they use the same carb as the FG60R3 for this engine.🤔

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

There is nothing wrong with that carb as far as I can see.

[@theflash0815]

@@WarbirdPiLOT I wondering a standart carb without choke for a expensive 5 Cylinder engine, but when it works its ok😉

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

@@theflash0815 Yes a choke would be nice, but don't think it's really needed...will see when I start her up 😁

[@theflash0815]

@@WarbirdPiLOT I use to prime my FG60R3 a 20ml syringe filled with air in the vent hose from the tank to create a slight overpressure then the engine sucks the fuel in like with a choke.😉

[@WarbirdPiLOT]

@@theflash0815 yes, i did almost the same with my fg60 as well, Mine always started on first flip right after refueling creating overpressure in tank like you 👍👍👌
