I think it would climb better, but I don't think it would improve the top end much. A reduction of about 1.6 to Tue, 24 Nov 2009 23:13:57 GMT Skuller _ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3066 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3066 Thanks... I recall having a problem with a flat spot on my buddy's 084. I can't remember what carb setup we tried next, but it was better.

We are also leaving it mounted on the engine in the original position. Do not move it to under the pan of the Tue, 24 Nov 2009 03:59:28 GMT Skuller _ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3063 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3063 Thanks.... that confirms a few of my thoughts... especially the full ribs. What carb are you guys using on your 084s? -Skuller ...

It puts out 240 pounds of thrust. If you go to youtube.com, and type in the search box Thu, 19 Nov 2009 23:31:21 GMT Skuller _ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3061 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3061 I am very interested in how that 084 performs... I have one with a prop hub around here someplace. The mag, intakes, valve covers, and oil filter will polish Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:24:12 GMT nport1502 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3060 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3060 Hey Skuller; Yup, all 50 horses of it. Real nice engine. But, just in case I have 2 VW's in the shop, LOL. I will be able to tell if we have enough power on Thu, 19 Nov 2009 04:19:31 GMT skuller57 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3059 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WW1_Nieuport_Biplanes/message/3059 Your work is absolutely first rate.... beautiful job. That's not an 084 behind the fan, is it?

They are in my album "Bob Hoskins". They are mostly of the wings.
