Speaking of costs for an opposing 6 cylinder engines. I hold in my hand a receipt for a factory new 2008 "crate" Porsche Boxster S engine shipped over from Stuttgart Germany representing 280 Hp of Autobahn fun for... $13,643.81. No core charge required. I am still not sure why the huge price difference between a Lycoming and this type of engine. At some point after 2, 3 or 4 rebuilds we can't lay the difference on liability costs.

It's possible the aircraft manufacturer wanted the hp restriction due to airframe issues. Rather than design and build a completely different engine, it was easier to restrict an engine already in production. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Kelly McMullen Sent: Friday, January 20, 2012 11:13 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: Aero Sport Power no longer selling (I)O-540s? Which raises the interesting question of why Lycoming issued different model numbers for the 250 hp Aztec C4B5 vs the 260 hp Comanche D4A5, which besides governor setting are allegedly identical. I suppose the feds against aviation made them do it. On 1/20/2012 10:05 AM, BPA wrote: > --> RV10-List message posted by: "BPA" > > Technically Todd, it's an IO-540X.
