I am putting a different engine in Bushwacker 2.0 this time around. Before I had a Lycoming 180 hp 0-360 Conical mount with updraft MA4-5 carb. This time I am going with a Lycoming IO-360 angle valve, it is rated for 200 hp. I have had some say it is not a good combination for a bush plane and others say no problem. I was going to converting it to an updraft carb so that I have the simplicity of gravity feed and hand proping when needed. I don't think you would loose much in horse power but would loose in fuel efficiency with the carb. Feedback?
Here is one of my question, can you still hand prop the IO-360 with no electrical power? I would also like to hear from any out there that are running the injected 4 cylinder engines and whether you hate it and would not do it again or like it and why.
Thank you,
Greg
