There is a point of no return.  More HP still may not benefit in speed.
Build it light and clean.  Also, more HP is more $$$ both in initial cost
and fuel burn.
Good luck.

Netters,
What are your opinions on using an O-290-D Lycoming for the KR2-S?
(approximately 230-260 lbs dry weight and 125hp at 2600 and 130hp at 2800).
The weight is about the same as the Corvair, but the horsepower is a bit
more. What do you think?

Rodger
