Thanks,

Jerry,

I have the Generac Valley Twin V on my Firestar. I've got 90 hrs of
flight time on it since last summer.

It works for me, where I fly out of, because I've got plenty of
runway. Needs about 400' of roll to get off, climb rate is about 400
fpm, 60% of what the 503 did. Cruise and handling is the same as the
503 was. If you have other questions, just email me off list.

Jimmy Young
FS II, Generac V-twin
