Hey folks,
Any body out there have any first hand experience with Valley Engineerings "Big Twin" engine.
If so would appreciate a reply. Would like to get your opinion of the engine and its HP & performance.
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
