From: "woxofswa" 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. -------- Myron Nelson Mesa, AZ Emp completed, QB wings completed, legacy build fuse in mostly done, finishing kit in progress.

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.

From: "tsts4" 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! -------- Todd Stovall 728TT (reserved) RV-10 Empacone, Wings, Fuse www.mykitlog.com/auburntsts Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=364313#364313 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rv10-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RV10-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rv10-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rv10-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
