I had the non bigfoot version, which I believe is identical except for the lowerleg/gearcase.

Great engine. Very reliable and efficient. Wouldn't hesitate in buying another.

Same here: I manage this very engine and it's wonderful. It really is a joy to drive (on the back of a ribcraft 4.8). Only problem we've had was an issue with the fuel pump with Mariner sorted out free of charge outit of warrentee.
