If you look through the Lycoming parts manual, you'll see that the C4B5 is part-for-part identical to the D4A5, except for some different choices regarding selection of oil filler neck (as I recall). The Lycoming tech reps at Oshkosh verified this, and said that the C4B5 can be run just like the D4A5 (2700 RPM, 260 HP) with no ill effects.

I left the option up to the builder. And it can be added later.. The second option, which I'm using in this install, is the interior lock to secure the door. When the billet handle is closed all the way the interior handle will also close and latch. There is a small hole where I insert a 1/8" pin to "unlock" the door. Keeps it simple and secure, no keys to loose. I'm still hammering out the numbers with the machinists, and cost will be based on volume, but this first run will sold at 575 complete with all hardware and instructions. And the cool thing is it'll retrofit easily into a flying aircraft...
