   Post on Yamaha Phazer Engine in Kitfox III

   By bcbushcaddy, posted 29 August

   Hello everyone, 
   Well.., our BushCaddy (see some posts within this forum) has sold and we picked up a brand spanking new 35 year old time capsuled Kitfox 3 - 1050 kit and decided to go around the 2 stroke Rotax's this time and opt for a Yamaha Phazer conversion instead. Explored all avenues of finding a re-drive system and finally settled on the Skytrax when Teal decided to build another patch. We couldn't find a suitable C-drive otherwise maybe Ben K's adapter plate might have been an option. Also talked to Mohawk and given it some serious consideration. But as mentioned, just before we pulled the trigger, Teal came through with another batch being built. We should hopefully see it here in not too long. 
   There will be some Rotax 582 related items coming up for sale such as a complete (new - unused) firewall forward kit and the instrument panel as a whole, since everything will be updated to run the Yamaha. Info to follow, stay tuned. Anyone interested, feel free to express your interest and just to let everyone know we are located in central BC, Canada. We of course would also love to hear from anyone already undertaking this engine project on a Kitfox 2, 3, 4-1050 or similar. We had a Kitfox 2 in the past and looking forward to get this one into the air. 
   Cheers, Willy T.
