In racing, we use a factor of .17 gallons per minute per hp as a conservative estimate of system flow required so 39 GPM in the case of an EG33 at power peak....
Al, I just posted a few photos on AirSoob. I added comments on them so I think they mostly explain themselves. As far as the poor man's "Wind Tunnel",...

While I am exploring a Saburu engine not for aviation but for an air boat, I need to utilize the same aerodynamic principles- Does anyone have any experience...
The gearbox can be the same as for an aircraft. You will need more static thrust because of low speed of your airboat comparatively with airplane. Look...
From all the lurking I note that there is very little discussion on the comparisons of the EA81 vs EA82 vs EJ18. If anyone has any details or comments I would...
Ivor, That's because we have long since decided which of these three engines is the most suitable for our needs: the EA-81 Compared to that one, the EA-82 is...
... My opinion is that the EA81 and EA82 are redundant. The Geo/Suzuki engines have a better power/weight ratio and are getting a lot of good feedback and a...
