JABIRU 1600 picture??

[440032]

I've never seen an early Jabiru 1600 engine and cannot find a picture of one.

Anyone have a pic they could share?
or do you know, the rocker covers - were they held on by just one central bolt and maybe made from cast ALUM with Jabiru logo?

Thanks.

Before that they had a KFM. made in Italy but they went BUST and Rod Stiff had to make his own engine. This bloke  by any measure should be regarded as a hero in the Aviation theatre in Oz.  So should Merv Richardson. Nev

Perfect BrendAn. Exactly what I had a feeling they were. I saw a pic of one in some plane recently, I thought it was a 1600 coz it sure as hell wasn't a 2200.

Case closed - thanks.

Interesting they had left and right handed heads. Most aero engines have only one type of cylinder.
