Hi all - Had taller Albins installed for some months ‘cause wanted to install the 1.9 TDI I have . The wbx didn’t handle them, max speed I got was close to 100 km/h not more. Rudi P. Re-installed the originals when he did my box again, after my first choice of workshop wrecked it (for a lot of money). Although I have 16” installed I could always easily follow Mark on our way to DOVW.
I have given the Diesel a miss after taking me 14 yrs to built my little biplane and I don’t want to spend another 2 yrs in my w/shop smelling of diesel...... ..hartmut

Eric, I just picked up my custom 3rd & 4th gears from albins last week the cost was about $350 per gear.I actually went with shorter gears becuase I have bigger tyres, so be careful with taller ratios with the stock engine.I dont think the wbx can really handle them.Cheers ,Eddie Bergodaz.
