Hi,
G-BFDL has a 0-200 in it, ask LAA engineering for the mod number, if you look on G-Info, for J3 cubs, you will get a list, those with "modified" next to them will have different engines,G-BSFD, is another 0-200 engined cub. Good luck.

The exhaust stubs will require extending by about 15mm to enable the muffler to clear the screen housing which is positioned lower on the backplate. Some cutting of the cowling also required to accomodate the exhaust outlet and air box.

www.j3-cub.com is a good place for advice.
