Because I Fly I laugh more than other men I look up And see more than they I know how clouds feel What it's like to have the blue in my lap To look down on birds To feel freedom in a thing called the stick Who but I can slice between God's billowing legs And feel them crash and laugh with his step? Who else has seen the unclimbed peaks? The rainbow's secret? The real reason birds sing? Because I fly I envy no man on earth.

ENGINE and Prop FOR SALE!
See it on eBay: Go to www.ebay.com and search for item #190209776346
This engine is a 0-84 4cyclinder 4 stroke with custom made prop in a tractor configuration that I bought to put on my Challenger II. Because my plane is a pusher I decided not to try to adapt this engine to it, plus the hp range is probably in the 35-40 range which is a little short for a 2 place Challenger. The prop was custom made by Cloud Cars and is 55" 25p and has never been installed. I also have the prop hub custom made that will fit this engine and prop and has never been installed. The guy that I bought this engine from has said it has been completely gone through and is ready to go. So if you have a Ultralight that you are looking for a engine, here is your chance On Mar-28-08 at 19:01:37 PDT, seller added the following information:
I have had a lot of questions, so here are some additional details. This engine is an A084A and was orginally designed by the federal government to power an stationary genarator and was made by several mfgs. It weighs approximately 100 pounds and I'm told generates about 35 to 40 hp. I believe the 84 represents cubic inches.
