Randy,
The P-Navajo has the TIGO-541-E1A engine. Like the engines in your 680,
Lycoming does not support it. Parts are hard to come by. I had a customer
that flew one into Pagosa Springs. We changed the vacuum pump. Bridget
"Fingers" the AI, found only two bolds holding it on. The other two were
loose. Only someone with really small hands can get to it. The customer
liked it and owned two of them. The second was for parts. But they are
cheep compared to the Cessna 414 or 421.

There. Tylor said it. I was going to, but didn't want to sound too
critical.
I have zero P-Navajo experience. But I will toss this useless
opinion/question out and maybe someone can shed some light on it.
I believe the Piper Cheyenne is based on or very similar to the P-Navajo
airframe. I understand that the short body Cheyenne (not the XL) has a SAS; a
Stability Augmentation System.
I'm suspicious of an airplane that needs synthetic devices to make them
flyable. The aircraft that I've flown that do have SAS of one kind or another
are
the Merlin III series and the Lear 25D. Both are in my Top Three List for
Great Performing Airplanes that I Hated to Fly.
If you want to go pressurized, look at the AC-685. It probably has a
similar runway requirement and performance -- but you know the systems and handling
are top notch.

Alan,
Likewise for my 500A, hopefully soon to be "improved"with a few more
horsepower.
Cheers,
