Title: Hi all
Post by: zzzeke on September 15, 2011, 02:50:37 PM
Hello everyone, just wanted to introduce myself.  I'm nearly the proud owner of an FJ, I used to own an FJ1100 a few years back before my stepfather very kindly crashed it into the back end of a horse... (don;t ask) but recently i have purchased an FJ1200 engine.  It is currently in a very sorry state but with some tlc i am hoping to use it for the power plant of a chopper.

I hope this isn't too "sacrilegious" to the die hard fans of the site, but i would greatly appreciated any help people can offer me during this build.

Welcome zzzeke

It might be, but a lot of us use these engines other than how they were designed. :shock:
But at least we are using them. :biggrin:

Perhaps he was looking for some extra horsepower :pardon:

Weclome to the group and keep that engine going :good2:
