Have to be honest, I don't know. Cylinders show fresh hone, I don't know how big it is. I planned on rebuilding it myself when the time come. It has the great plains front bearing, and a slick mag. No carb or exhaust. Single port, single plug heads.
 
More pics.

Hi, sorry to hear you won’t be finishing your project. I suspect you’d like to sell the entire project. However, should you decide to part it out, I would be interested in the canopy, cowling, and wing tips. I’m building an S2L stretch. Thanks. Located in Nebraska.

I would like to give the entire project more time before I part it out. Was thinking it would be more attractive as complete as it is. Will keep you in mind or you can check back with me. Thank you.
 
Greetings! I'm located about an hour north of Columbus and would really like to come take a look at your project, but admittedly because I'm working on one of my own and need help getting past some sticky parts. Would you be willing to allow me to come and see sometime?
 
I wouldn't rely on this part of that website:

"The Sonerai has folding wings so that it can be towed to and from the airport to save on storage expense."

Unless you live on the airport. A trailer works, but the Sonerai is not designed to be towed any distance.
 
My Sonerai is a II LS. Ser 0072. It has the jabiru J3300 fuel injected, solid lifter engine from which I get 3300 rpm and 127 hp. It is quick. At 127 hp it sees 200 MPH which is Vne. The engine has 200 hrs since new. I installed Hoerner wing tips, after flying it with the J3300 engine. During the test flight the fuselage fabric tapes peeled off at 200 mph. I completely recovered it last year and am going to assemble and fly it this spring. It is silver now,.
It seats two guys 6'6" tall.
However I also fly a Bakeng Deuce and thought I had the SIILS sold but the buyer had a 2 story work accident and has not recovered enough to allow him to fly.
He called me with an offer. This is the first time I've posted it here.
I have maybe $25,000 invested. There is something else that interests me and if It was sold I'd get that. I'm 75.
The previous offer was $16,000 US. I won't sell it for less than that. It's in Ontario, Canada. Is anyone Interested?
