Raven Rotors Suzuki Metro Geo
aircraft engine conversions.
Raven
ReDrives Inc. -
Raven Re Drives has been providing the ultralight and
light plane industry, 4 stroke engine alternatives for a
number of years now. They first entered the market with a "how to
manual" on converting the Geo Metro/Suzuki engine for aircraft
application. The manual takes you from what you need to purchase
at the wrecking yard, the computer wiring, starter, alternator, how to
lighten the engine on through to installation of the reduction
drive.
In addition to this Raven ReDrives also supplies
reduction drive kits and engine packages, tailored around the Geo/Suzuki
line of auto engines. These 4 stroke liquid cooled, overhead camshaft
engines have a proven track record of reliability in aircraft use. One
of the reasons is that the engine is designed to run at 3950 rpm @ 75
mph in the car - which is the same rpm used in aircraft application.

A
4 Stroke with the power and weight of a 447 Rotax!
New for 2000 Raven Redrives are in the development stages of two new units. Ultralight pilots have been looking
for a reliable, affordable 4 stroke with a weight near that of a 447
Rotax. A 90 lbs
Suzuki 2 cylinder hybrid engine, of 42 horespower in prototype stage was
shown at Sun N Fun. The engine is liquid cooled, twin carb, with
electronic ignition, electric start with a lightened version of the 1000
UL reduction drive.
Super Charger
The second unit on display was a
"supercharger" for the Raven line of engines. All of the
Raven ReDrive sereis will be able to utilize this upgrade kit. The unit
is belt driven from the accessory end of the engine and is a bolt on kit
with the Raven Ram-Air induction plenum, custom supercharger connection
hoses and mouting hardware. The system is designed to work with the
stock fuel injection system and computer.
