I have a Kitfox Lite with the original 2si engine. I have been thinking that the 4ao84 and the kitfox could be a fairly good match. Does anyone have any familiarity with the kitfox lite? Would the airframe be able to deal with the extra weight? I know that the 503 was an option on these, but the 4ao84 is about 30# heavier than that. I am a tool and die maker and have a full machine shop at home, I've been wondering if some creative machine work could give the 4ao84 enough of a diet to bring the weight down closer to the half VW range. I've had been waiting for the pegasus o-100 to come to fruition, but it seems stalled. Whats everyone's thoughts?
