Charlie and Ron, I agree 'there is no replacement for
displacement', and a big radial is sweet. A friend of
mine has a couple of Waco's, an INF and a UPF, the INF
(a rather smaller biplane) has been repowered from a
front exhaust Kinner to a rear exhaust Kinner (these
are smaller 5 cylinder engines). He also shied away
from the collector ring and speed ring. Mounted a
cowl similar to a PT-22 and went with individual
stacks. Should here that thing running, you can tell
it 3 miles away! Very distinctive to say the least.
Not original but SWEET. I love it!
Dave
