Hey Michael!My C-90 actually began life as an O200 which had to be overhauled anyways,so it was no big deal to swap out the cam and the few other things thatdifferentiate the two. (carburetion I think was one, but can't remember now)I think it was a good way to go as there are lots of runout O200's around.Seems to definitely be the "engine of choice" in the UK where they fly aslightly larger/heavier Pietenpol.Should be good, well see.Got one exhaust/heat muff/muffler assembly finished last night, one more togo, then finish some wiring and plumbing and fire her up and get a freshblast of encouragement for the final push! Gotta get this bugger done (orre-done would be more accurate). This rebuilding stuff kinda stinks.Douwe________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sat, 14 Jan 2012 13:31:50 -0500

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: C-90Michael, My extensive research (a google search) says that the -90 makes only 95HP but has better torque down low, right where a slow and low plane needs it.No dif in weight unless you get one of the new O-200s. Blue Skies,Steve D----- Original Message -----
