Hey, I am wondering if it is possible to get a corvair engine under 200 lbs? I need about 100 hp, and definitely want a 5th bearing. I know very little about them. Was thinking hand prop to save the weight of a starter? A Continental o-200 is approved for the airframe, so that is my goal. I like 6 cylinders, and am an adventurous kind of dude. Just heard about Corvairs, and am very intrigued.

Thanks for your help.
