Hi Pete, 

Short of going out to the runway with tape measures and stopwatches,
our comparisons are likely to be rather subjective.

Twice in the last couple of months since fitting the new undercarriage, we have
experienced trying to take off on grass with half fuel, little/no headwind and
a pilot plus one "fat bastard" passenger. It wasn't fun!

So the real comparison will be made after fitting the new engine and propeller
blades and trying to take off again in similar circumstances.

I'll try to remember to let you know after completing the conversion, which 
won't
be for several months.
