Just wanted to send a special thanks to Darcy at Troy Built, and Flyinrazrback for all their time and advice on helping me to choose the best possible set up for me. Darcy at TBM was very knowledgeable and took time to answer all my questions and help me to get a sweet plane. And of course all the time Razrback has taken to help me with my questions and understnading why his answers were the way they were. Guys like these two are what really make this hobby the most fun. Thanks again to both you guys.

I've orderd alot of parts from TBM.......great service. As for Rzrback.........I've flown full scale B-52's with that guy.......talk about scary! But he's a great guy also, even if he switches planes more than his underwear |

I am glad I dont fly B-52s any more, flying T-38s is much more fun and dont have that constant nagging from folks in the back of the plane lol

Lemme know what you looking for info wise. I've got some time on mine....I'm sure not as much as some others.....but I've had nothing but a great experience with this engine. BUt for quick comparative purpose.....my buddy had a 3W 80 on a can......and ZDZ 80 RV-J was putting outmore power on a wrap around pitts muffler. Neo | |||||||||||||||
