I was wrong about the series though, it's a 3000 series. Unfortunately I have to wait till this winter to do this as there is no room to work till I pull the engine.

The KR2S is designed to accept the 100 hp 0-200, and I heard Bill Marcy (contracted structural engineer for RR) say that it could handle more at the Oshkosh KR forum one year.
