Cheers,

        First, a very Happy Christmas to those who still celebrate the 

event - and a bright new unused 2007 for your success!



        Down to business - I may have asked before but cannot remember - a 

daily event:

      I plan on adding a B&C SD20  alternator to the 914, which is destined 

to receive a Woodcomp CS prop through the same driveshaft area, and wish to 

avoid any interference to either.

        Is there someone in similar circumstances who might advise me, yea 

or nay?

Fergus,
	




It seems that the 914 drive doesn't spin fast enough for the SD20 to 

produce the rated power.

How about leaving the prop governor on the top pick-up pad, and 

installing the alternator at the rear of the engine, like in

The Europa certainly has enough room below the cowl, since the original 

idea came from Europa builders Jim Butcher and Jim Nelson.



Season's greetings

Regards,

Gilles

Fergus

I think Gilles idea is best, Jim Nelson did this years ago but he sold 

his Florida Europa. Bob Berube might help you? You could use a Nipodenso 

alternator, I suspect that's what B&C do anyway.

may the world be gentle in 2007.
