Apparently this has been done. The Vne is listed 190 kts, though I don’t know if that’s indicated or true (flutter) airspeed. If I ever buy a Long EZ, I may try to mount one of these engines.

Canard people (NTTAWWT) are always grousing about temps; I imagine the liquid cooling of the rotax would be a welcome addition.

How about a Velocity with a DeltaHawk diesel?

Figure out the cooling scheme and the W/B and that's probably a great engine for an EZ.

I’ve seen this twin velocity in person as well as the Cirrus.

Very very interesting set ups. I wish I could get one on my 310.

Twin Velocity seems snakebit -- I wish they could get it going or at least learn something from the crashes.
