    Hey Japowell:
    I'm new to this world. Would you have contact info for Stacey at RMW wings?
    They are exactly what I'm looking for.

    Aircraft Spruce has them for $530 CAD ea. I put them on my 172 taildragger and I'm also going to put them on my Avid project. 
    They are vey light weight.

    Thanks again Jim.
    I sounds like I would gain much by stretching it.

    Stretch fuselage or not.
    I have finally settled on a Rotax 912UL - 80hp. 
    If I'm installing this in a Avid model "A" do I need to stretch the tail out. ? The guy I bought it from said that he was going to do that.

    I have been looking at the 912UL 80hp, but the price is sitting around the $17,000 mark for a new one. I looked up the specs and the weight with the exhaust system and the starter will put it over that 140lb. mark. 

    Also the 912 could be lightened up some. Where I'm from 912's are hard to find. That's why I'm looking at alternatives.
    They have been using the Viking 90 in a few ultra-lites. What I've read is that its a Mitsubishi with Honda pistons.

    Any advice or opinion is welcome.
