My BD-4 Kit came from Martin Steel, formally of Safe Air Woodbourne, and now living in Rangiora. <br />I also have a Lycoming O-320-H2AD ready to go in my plane, but would really like to get a Honda Accord Euro 2.2L Turbo Diesel at a later date. Very light, 340Nm of Torque from 2200rpm up to 5000rpm ! I had heard rumours that the very same BD4 you have been discussing was based near Thames and had been playing with a diesel alsoUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07340590305765330418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6172387939495342053.post-74666957257584173702009-11-10T18:53:57.028+13:002009-11-10T18:53:57.028+13:00Hi there,

I'm trying to put together a comprehensive list of BD-4s with photos. I hope you're not upset that I already put the photo there. I'll take it off immediately if you want me to. Thanks for tracking the only (?) BD-4 in NZ.
