I am looking at Don George and Zephyr Engines. I plan on making a decision today so if u care to weigh in, please do so ASAP.

I also have herd good things about: Mattituck air craft engines800-624-6680 Barrett Performance engines918-835-1089 Aero Spor t Power250-376-2955 Ly-con aircraft engines559-651-1070 These overhaul sho ps are probably out of the way. Don George and Zephyr are the only two in F L that I have herd of. If I can be of any help please let me know.

Zephyr engines is a better call but the top 2 in my mind are LyCon and Aerosport power. They do incredible work and produce a superior product for your incestment. I know they are farther away, but you asked :) Smokey Sent from my iPhone On Mar 30, 2012, at 7:29, Jim Stone wrote: > > Hey guys, I had an engine failure the other day and I am looking for the best choice in engine shops.
