Aircraft motor question

crabby

Well-known member
What's the difference if any between a six cylinder 220gpu and a six cylinder E225 continental
 
220 gpu is that a gpu. A e225 is a airplane,or heli and it has a 3" shaft coming out the rear were prop bolts up. Gpu crab on top and e motor carb on bottom. better jugs and dual mags. If I had to chose one it would be the e motor. More parts availbe
 
Crabby, havent heard from ya? Whats up? To anwser your question, the e-motor is a better motor as far as weight vs. horsepower, the e-motor is lighter by far then the gpu. And is a true aircraft motor, if you get one, get one w. a standard regular crank, not the spline crank. I onwed an e-motor w/ 0470 angle valve cylinders 250-260 horsepower and it was a good motor. I would get the e-motor b/c you can put 520's on it down the rode, and have a good true aircraft motor. As fair as parts, I wouldnt say the e-motor has more parts, there are alot of gpu parts, but if you get a good e-motor you shouldnt have to buy many parts.
