-----Original Message-----For example, if you are leaning toward a certified engine, you are probablylooking at an immediate outlay of expense in a lump sum, where building acorvair can be done piecemeal as you can afford it. An added benefit isthat you built it, you know how it is put together, and can likely fix itwhen it needs maintenance (my opinion).Not necessarily true. I bought my Continental A65 as a box of parts, for$1500. Two years later I bought new Millenium cylinders for it. A yearlater I sent the crankshaft and the crankcase out for overhaul and bought anew camshaft. A year later I assembled everything. Total cost $7,500 for azero time vertified aircraft engine - very little more than a full-upCorvair conversion with the fifth bearing.As Shelley said, the deciding factor should be the type of flying you expectto do and the terrain you will be flying over. Will you be flying out ofshort strips with tall trees? If so you may need more power and opt for aCorvair, or an O-200 or O-235.One thing to remember in choosing is how easy it may be to get service ifyou have a problem away from home. Most aircraft repair shops will nottouch an auto engine conversion, so while you might be able to repair aCorvair or Ford very inexensively, you may not be able to repair it at allwhen on a trip.Jack PhillipsNX899JPSmith Mountain Lake, Virginia________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sat, 15 Sep 2012 20:54:33 -0500Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: flop
