All,
Time to start thinking about a new engine for the 73 c-180J. I have read the treads and called two shops. Barrett Performance aircraft engines and Ly-Con. Interestingly Barrett, though not on the approved list, was interested in building the engine however..... after waiting 2 months for a quote and making 4 phone calls to check and see why no quote was made it appears obvious that that is not going to work out.
Ly-Con was my first choice. It’s seems however good the engines are they are unreliable in terms of delivery. They have been reasonably responsive in answering questions.
Is there another reputable option out there? Is Ly-Con still a worthy contender for my dollar?
. I really don’t have to have the engine by a date but would like to have it by some date.
If there are recent experiences with Ly-Con I would appreciate you sharing. It seems everyone likes the PPONK and I am committed to that direction over other options but would like to feel confident of the vendor I am doing business with.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts on this.
