Guys,
Have my eye on a like new HIO-360 removed from an Enstrom Helicopter in lieu of a Turbine. Is the HIO the same dimensions as an Angle Valve A1B6? Think I could shoehorn it into my RV6 cowl? Bigger than a parallel valve 360 but is mounted level in the Enstrom just like an airplane.
My thoughts are bolting it right up to my current conical mount in place of the 0320 ND, plumb a intake scat from the stock intake to the rear induction, new baffles and oil cooler. Should work, in theory. New Catto prop for higher HP (solid crank) Anybody ever done it?
Thoughts?
