  Nigel:

  Good points regarding the weight of the engine.

  Would any of you know the weight  of a 912S/914, firewall forward?

  Thanks. Al.

    Be aware that the Subaru engine is significantly heavier than the Rotax

    Jabiru. Here in the UK most builders have moved away from the Subaru
    realising that the extra weight is a significant penalty in an a/c that
was
    designed around the Rotax 912. Now that the 912S is available with 100hp
    there is less reason to consider heavier engines.
