Hello !

Are there any RV`s out there with a Franklin Six Cylinder engine ?

I want to build a RV-9A and have such an engine in my hangar.
Any recommendations ?

Gutten Tag Henning!
As long as your Franklin is within the recommended horsepower range for the
RV9 (160 max) there shouldn't be a problem aside from the usual mounting,
cowling space, etc... There is quite a variety of powerplant choices, it seems like
anything goes, so long as you feel comfortable with it. I like the V6 Chevy
installation at this point but I'm still a year or so away from that BIG
decision.
