Double star 54
« on: December 03, 2011, 01:51:09 AM »
Can anybody tell me what engine would be a drop in replacement for a double star 54? I recently purchased an sv11 arc that was already drilled out for a DS 54 and was wondering what my options are?

what happened to the Double star 54 ? I was under the impression they were a powerful drop in for the ST 46.

Enya .45 #6001 should also bolt-in, if the ST .46 does. I have one NIB, if you are interested.  y1 Steve

I know the ST .46 is a direct swap for the DS .50.  Haven't had a DS .54 yet.  I have heard that there is a shortage of delivery on Double Stars right now.  Any truth to it? (I admit to not having called Tom Dixon to see.........)

For the SV 11 ARC, I would want more than a ST .46, especially if it is to be a competition ship.

I used a reworked ST G.51 in my SV-11.  It was "plans built" and 64 oz.RTF.  It was a great set up!  I would want at least that much engine in a SV 11 to get real performance out of it.
