Guys, After many questions here are further details on my neighbors IO-540X for sale. The engine is an overhauled Barrett IO-540-X experimental Angle Valve engine with 8.7:1 compression & chrome cyls. It was major overhauled and dynoed in 2004. It includes a new Skytech starter, New B&C Alt, overhauled injector servo, Slick Mags, plugs and is preserved in the shipping crate. All the dyno data and logbooks are complete from Barrett. The engine dynoed 264.2 HP at 2517 RPM. $30K for everything, $28K minus accessories. (accessories are worth>2K) My neighbor bought a Glasair project which included this engine, sold the airplane and now wants to sell the engine to pay for his Howard DGA project. A win-win scenario for someone who needs a good IO-540... Rob Ray 863-529-4744 --------------------------------- All-new Yahoo!

From: "John W. Cox" Rob, the emerging question is, was the overhaul done by Barrett or did someone overhaul a Barrett Built Engine? How many hours since the most recent overhaul - what were the most recent compression numbers in 2005 or 2006? Is it still pickled?
