I am almost finished with Lancair 360 w/eg33 turbo. Can you give me any info on cooling system? Everything else is finished. My e-mail is lancair4ds@yahoo.com. What a great motor, love the sound! Thank you, Dave Skrock

I just love these videos!!! I am the owner of two of the eg33 engines myself. Both in SVX's (Naturally!) one my daily driver and the other my donor car. I have been seriously considering putting the engine into a boat and was wondering how you went about transferring the electronics?? Completely new stuff for the plane? or did you keep some stock svx electronics?? I would love to see a video "under the hood" for a better look of how you have your hardware setup! Thanks for any reply!!!!

That just sounds dead sexy. I own an SVX myself, and I can see why you'd like it for a donor motor. Check out some of my videos for what it sounds like in a car.

Hi.... Love you videos on your Suby Glasair.... I own an SVX and never knew that the EG33 could sound like a Merlin V-12 from a P-51 mustang!!!! Can you give me and others more information on your EG-33 engine choice? Specs.? Thanks... and have a an AWSOME time flying that SPEED MACHINE!!!

Im not sure what you want with engine choice. If you are wondering why I chose the EG33 first it has a similar size and shape of an aviation motor for a nice fit.

More importantly, I put data for the EG33 and about 40 other motors into a data base. I looked at things like, piston speed, weight to torque, torque curve, RPM spread between RPM and toque peak, if they had no strike pistons ....etc  When I did queries the EG33 always came in first, second or third.
