Hello Randy, Your project sounds very interesting.I am a retired Bodyman and found the Nopistons.com web site and thought about the airplane engine.Do you have any information or web site that I can go to and get more info or better yet do you know of anybody actually building one.I live here in California ( San francisco ) Bay area.My wife thinks I am crazy but she doesn't understand all the automotive conversions out there flying. VW for one. Thanks again Randy and good luck on your project. Larry
