[QUOTE=Dale Hunter;1658897]Let him sleep Bradley. We have tried. Yes he needs a great deal like this.
But someone has him thinking more power will make him fly better.


I disagree dale as I have an eme 60 in the aj slick. The gp in the edge is more power but the eme handles the slick good enough to not buy a new motor

In reference to your statement last night towards Jack.
Wouldn't more power make you fly better?

Nothing wrong with your EME60, or Gus'. A great engine. I have an EME 35 that runs good does all I ask of it. No burble, on a nice reasonably quiet can.
But being an EME powered airframe seems no one is interested.

Re: The never ending engine thread, East-West

At what serial number did EME change bearings in the 120? Or do they even have a S/N?
