I'd love to participate but honestly, I feel that the price of the engines is a bit extreme but that's just me. For what they are (HP range) $12,000.00 is just...

Chris, I hear you on two counts; 1. the cost, and 2. not everyone being a machinist. I'm not a machinist; by trade I'm a Machine Technician. Although I am...

HI All, Just got my power back after hurricane Charley/Frances plowed through my area. HCI has sold a few turn key engines... possibly more than five if memory...
Hey Jim, I hope to see HCI engines too but 12K for a 85HP engine is a bit tough on the pocketbook. I wish they would look into the future a bit more and sell...

Andy, Would you have a good reason to why not use a commercial aircraft engine jug (like an A-65 cylinder, as an aexample) instead of the small VW cylinder &...
We thought about using A-65 or 0-200 jugs but the cost would really run off a lot of people. There are plenty of people who think the engine is priced too high...
