Hello ,
Recently purchased KT-2 serial #00031 and will be slowly moving towards getting it operational.
Currently has the original engine that is froze up, transmission has a few issues, fiberglass is in need of some repair and needs a few inner tubes .
Possibly located a running 1600 engine, is that a reasonable Swap ?
Looking at kt-3 pictures they seem to have a curved angle iron support around the lower half of the engine bay instead of the wooden/fiberglass support that the kt-2 has.
I have been thinking about doing that instead of replacing the damaged wood?
Does anyone have a source or options for the 6.00-6 tires or tubes ?
Airplane tires are pretty pricey so I have been keeping an eye on eBay for used serviceable units.
I would appreciate any insight or tips anyone has to offer.
Thanks
William
