Depending on system components, aren't there other issues?
I once swapped to auto fuel in my RV-3A experimental. The engine ran fine
and I was saving cash until I started getting leaks. My metal tanks had been
sloshed to prevent leaks; hoses, o-rings and seals were fabricated out of
materials not so impervious to additives in the auto fuel. I resealed the
tanks and replaced some other components, swapped back to avgas, and had no
further problems.
Perhaps YAK and CJ systems are impervious to auto fuel additives -- I
haven't looked or asked -- but if one has added after-market items such as
bladder tanks, float valves, hoses, o-rings, and seals, it would pay to be
sure they are impervious auto fuel use.
At least, I know I'll think of more than just engine performance and costs.
Avgas might prove cheaper, at least for as long as it's available.

Wow, for a couple extra thousand you could get a M14P. No offense

[quote="KingCJ6(at)aol.com"]How much for the engine and do you have the
engine logs?
Unit price is USD 24616 for first time overhauled condition based on FOB
Xi'an with log books.

Very true Bear, but add on exhaust, gill shutters (maybe), prop, engine mount and
misc electrics............and yes I do have an M-14 sitting as a spare! Anyone
got any gill shutters?
Also, Housai logs from China, real deal, I'd be skeptical. Just me.

Oh trust me, I know the cost to upgrade to the M14P. :-)
However, if the delta is really only Exhaust (1.8-2k), Gill shutters
(1.2-1.5k), Prop (4k-15k), and some misc. then the upgrade becomes "more"
reasonable. If the delta includes 10k for the engine and the rest, then it
is "less" reasonable. :-)
No offense to anyone on the list. I can see a Housai (new) being 18k, or
1st OH being 12-14k. But if I'm paying over 20k I'd go with the M14P.
MNSHO (my not so humble opinion)
Still very glad I upgraded, and feel that way every flight.

If I could get a new Housai tomorrow for 18K I'd cash in my 401K and buy as many
as I could!!
I think the bigger issue is (and part of the reason I got mine) is the fact that
there is a least one company and maybe two that are in place to do a full overhaul
of the M-14 here in the US.
