'06 RV-8 with 132 hours on the airframe and 292 hrs SMOH on the O320-H2AD T-mod engine. Engine has Barrett Performance flow matched 9.5 - 1 cylinder assemblies. Runs strong and smooth. The workmanship on this airplane is as good as I have seen on any RV. It puts the quick-builds to shame! I was not looking for a RV-8 when I found this one (I prefer the side by side seating arrangement) but had to buy it after seeing it. Engine logs since new.
I'm looking for a RV-7 again so the 8 is now for sale.
