My searches haven't turned up anything - has anyone ever swapped a 787 RFI in place of a carb'd motor in an X4 hull? A fuel injected X4 sounds neat, at least in my book.
I have a 97 SPX (build thread link below) that is slated for resurrection this winter and also happen to have parted out a 2000 GTX RFI last year. I have always wanted to learn the RFIs and the carb'd motor currently in the SPX is locked up, so I wanted to ask those that are far more knowledgeable than myself - is there a reason this swap isn't possible? I know the exhaust may get interesting since the water box is on the wrong side and the fuel tank will have to be modded for the fuel pump.
