Think I said...I have the 80 hour...second gen HKS on a Rans S-14...
Wondering if it was a big job to install one on the Firestar? I have
two 503's...well actually three..since I have one on the Challenger 2
that was in the pics that you saw... My thought is to move the HKS to
the Firestar and install a 503 on the Rans...
So...a question....or two..firstly how many brackets and the like
were you required to make and two..did you make your own hoses for the
dry sump? Herb

I didn't have to make any brackets other than for my oil cooler and tank. I think that I got every thing I needed from Jerry (at)Green sky. The mounting plate has to have a divot in it to accommedate the sump on the HKS, as well as . Jerry had some brackets that he made for the mags and other electrical stuff. I received the hose and fittings from him as well, and every thing worked out well. I left the muffler where he suggested, but changed the oil cooler to the back of the cage. You might check with Berle and see what if any improvements he came up with. I will be glad to furnish you with any pictures you might want and between Bill Berle and myself find something that will fit what you want.

Good info Larry
Thanks..
Just came home from looking at a Firestar project...but did not buy..only good parts were the tail feathers and tail boom...The plane was a winner at Sun n Fun many years past...Blue with trim..guy in Miss.. injured himself with an engine out I was told..Hit the trees and the plane fell to the ground..The fuselage was a tangled mess.. Might have been on pontoons at one time? Herb
I will keep looking...
