engine swap

[Todd copeland]

Surely the kit fox is an airframe that the 912 is used on so I think it would be pretty straight forward, probably the same for the avid. If the factory supports those engines for the airframe it should be more a matter of $ and elbow grease than anything else.

Remember there are lot of different versions of the Kitfox. All of the comments above should be applied carefully. Aviation writer Amy Laboda and her husband have a Kitfox that they built and later re-engined from a 582 to a 912 IIRC so it is possible, depending on which Kitfox it is.
