Plonk the engine in.
Looks pretty small in there....I feel like it needs a turbo or something to make it more manly? Looks too small with no camshatlfs or other big heavy gear on top of engine...

Wait till you see how much gas this baby sucks   >>@
The size of your fuel tank may well  make up for the lack of engine size.

I'm thinking that WOT will be sucking close to 100 litres/hour?
Cruise 25 litres/hour?
Its 2.6 litre and most of the fuel/oil will blow straight out the exhaust, some will get turned into noise and heat...
What's left will turn the jet unit and hopefully make enough thrust to have some fun. B))T

What's the compression ratio on these things? Can you get revised bits to alter CR, pistons, or reed valves, etc?
