If I remember correctly when I changed from a Rotax to a Jabiru all I did w
as contact the FSDO office and spoke to, is this case, the same individual 
who performed my original inspection.- I think some paperwork exchaned ha
nds and I was good to go.

OK guys,

I am working on an engine swap, and called he local FSDO to see what I need
ed to do as this is a different engine manufacture than what is on my airwo
rthiness (mine states that it is good with ALL rotax engines).

The local guy said that I needed to go back to the original faa office that
 gave approval the kit manufacture ?? Has anyone else gone through this?-
 say a swap from a rotax to a VW or Subie or some other engine that is not 
purpose built for aircraft?- I would think that the inspector may want to
 come out and look at it, maybe through me back to phase 1 for XX hrs to pr
ove out the engine, but it should be done on the local level I would think.
..
