A model IV Kitfox can be made to work with this (200+ pound) engine.  They will work, but the weight is a factor.  Without a doubt, very pretty and sexy sounding, though.

It sounds better than most, but if testosterone had a voice it would sound like this round engine...

0:18 Pilot closes canopy and commences starting engine.

1:05 Engine lopes to life like a top fuel dragster.

1:18 Pilot decides glass should not be between his ears and that idling awesomeness; re-opens canopy.  :P
