I am getting to the point in my build where having an engine would be handy. I’m hoping to take advantage of any show specials and order an engine at Oshkosh.
One of the engines that has caught my attention is Aerosport Power’s IO-375. I like the idea of a lower compression engine and the increased margins for running with auto fuel. What I’m struggling with a bit is what prop to use with it if I go this way. It looks to me like the Sensenich and the Whirlwind fixed props are recommended for 180hp – where this engine will likely put out somewhere around 195-200hp.
Does anyone know if I can safely run either the fixed pitch Sensenich or Whirlwind with~200hp safely or of any other fixed pitch prop that would work in this application
Thanks,
Jason
