I spoke with them recently about an engine. It appears that neither Aerosport
nor Barrett's build kit engines anymore. From what I gather, Lycoming has raised
the kit prices to the point that there is no competitive margin for a house
shop.
Aerosport will do a buildup of a 540 core, they just couldn't find one when I was
looking. Barrett did find me one and I went with them.

Question is your Kit over five yrs and if so do you have the spinner kit? L
ooking for and old kit that would have the old front spinner support. Van h
as changed to their own and it does not fit the old spinner with the Hartze
l Prop.

I went through this discovery back during the summer as I was researching the various
options in prep for OSH. That's when I noticed that 540's had dropped
off the Mattituck order form. Further research uncovered the whole Lycoming kit
issue that you're dealing with today. That's when going with a zero-time rebuilt
became choice #1. Talked to Rhonda from Barrett at OSH and the rest is
history- they are delivering my rebuilt C4B5 next Tuesday!
