Late to the party

Greetings from Northern Virginia,
My name is Mike Gingras. I am the second owner of Sonex 1054, a Revmaster powered, tri-gear. I have just crossed the 200 hour mark in the airplane and still having a blast. It's not just the flying and learning. I have met so many great people in this community! Can't wait for COVID to pass and get back to doing the fly-ins to meet more of you.
I am just starting a major upgrade replacing the Revmaster with a UL Power 350is and converting the tri-gear to a tail dragger. The engine swap is for me and the landing gear because my oldest son (a pilot and an A&P) wants to build a Kitfox or similar. Here's a cheap way for him to build tail wheel time!
I have quietly absorbed so much knowledge from this site over the past 2+ years that I figure I would start giving back. I will share my UL Power install and flying experience for the good of the group.
Thanks again for all the useful information and ideas posted!
