While still waiting for prices for the Firewall forward kit for my classic kit in construction, and expect it to be expensive, I wondered, if using a 912 engine whether I cant just use the unused classic cowls etc that I have already, I have a 912 in my C42 which doesnt get anywhere near warm enough even with taped up rads, so Its not likely to be a cooling issue. Presumably I could still get the right exhaust, oil cooler, radiator etc - isnt the rest standard rotax? The europa engine mount must be the same as well

Am I missing something?

Why don't you use the XS firewall forward kit. Better viz over the nose, better access behind the engine easier access at the front too.
Radiators are from aircon units and might be difficult to source, oil cooler different too. Plenty of Classics have gone this way.
