I just wanted to express my appreciation and gratitude for all the excellent customer service, tech tips, and service after the sale. Your team is the best in the business and I know you will continue to prosper and grow as leaders in the PPG world. You have made it possible for so many people to live out their dream and achieve safe and reliable flight.

God bless you and your team at BlackHawk.

I just opened last night and I must say this thing is awesome! Literally the craftsmanship and toughness of this thing blows me away. It looks way better in real life than any of the photos I scanned through on my computer. After staring at my BDs for the last few months, I honestly didn’t expect a ppg engine to be this rigid and look this well made. With luck I’ll be able to fire it up tomorrow night for a few flights.

The one thing I do need to ask about is the torque settings. The manual recommends the head gasket be torqued to 9+2 NM. Is that 9.2 NM? If I understand it right, that would be about half the torque of the black devil which was 2.2 NM. Do the needs just change that much with a different thread? Probably a dumb question.

Anyway, the motor is beautiful and I thank you for encouraging me to buy this motor!!!
