Anybody have any time with this engine? Building an RV-8. I am considering all my options here. I have been told everything from this is the perfect mix of HP and weight to this is an experimental experimental engine.
I will order my IO-375 in a couple of day.. So I can't tell you my own experience with this engine.
But I've sent an E-mail to Robert Grigson in 2009. He is flying an RV8 with an IO-375 since at least 10/4/2009.
He is a member of the VAF (rgrigson)
You should contact him.
I have one on the front of my 8 with a MT prop. Might know how she runs in the spring of 2011. Painting wings now. Bart and Sue are great people to work with.
