Hello everyone!

More engines for your Super Rebel or Elite.(or highly reinforced REBEL)

Leavens Aviation Inc. has just acquired TEN Lycoming TIO-540-A1A engines. Of
course these engines in their current configuration (with updraft exhausts)
would be a little goofy in a Super Rebel (you could put 8 exhaust stacks up
through the cowl top like a tractor puller does it guess), but Leavens can
overhaul these engines as IO-540 x 300 H.P. engines with downdraft
cylinders. The pricing at this point has not been etched in stone (or even
pen) and they are guessing a ball park price of $37,000 Cdn for homebuilt
use

They also have a Lycoming IO-360 parallel valve engine, that can be built as
180 H.P or 195/200 H.P. and the price will be around $31,500Cdn. It has:

NEW Millennium Sandcast Cylinders
Bendix 1200 Series Mags
New Skytech Starter - lightweight
New 40 Amp Alternator kit - lightweight
NEW ECI Crankshaft
Reconditioned Cam and lifters
Overhauled Crankcase
Air Performance Fuel Injection System

If anyone is interested in these engines, please contact me off list and I
will do my best to get you the best deal available out of Leavens!

Thanks,
