Unlike the Vw based motors you can run a  ground adjustable prop on the A-65

Hmmm.  May have to look into the complex prop situation.  I've got a Culver prop coming, but if that turns out to be the wrong pitch....

I do have 2 more A65's.  However, they'll be built up as certified engines - not cheap! this one cost me a bundle to get all of the machining done.

I hope it runs!  I'm working on the baffles and waiting for the prop. Need some stacks and heat muff and then it's test time!
