No, the starter motor on the EME70 sits above the cylinders. And the engine on the Super Cub is mounted towards the top of the firewall, preventing the starter motor from fitting inside the cowl.


I wanted to do the same thing but settled on the EME70 without starter motor on my BUSA Super Cub.

PTM. That is what i thought from the pictures on Mile High. I bought a used G-62 that turned out to be a 45. The airplane flies but is obviously underpowered. My airplane is scratch built from BUSA plans and weighs 46 pounds, so thanks for the info, I will be purchasn' a EME 70 w/out the starter. Thank you. Nick
