I hate to use this forum to advertise, but it is necessary that I reach as many of you as I can quickly.
As may of you know, we import and sell the M14P engines. The engines we sell are new manufacture and made by Aeromotors at their factory in Romania. This factory was in danger ceasing production of the engines two years ago. I promised them that we could sell 20 engines a year for the next several years if they would keep the production line open. Due to the large amount of new old stock engines and used engines on the market we have not been able to keep our commitments to the factory.
The factory has since received contracts to manufacture other things and the engine production is now about 20% of their total business. They also secured parts, forgings and castings based on our projections. This was a considerable outlay for them as in order to keep the prices reasonable they made orders for several years worth of materials.
If the production volume decreases further, they will treat the engine manufacture as a specialty and will only make them to order. This will probably dramatically increase the cost and lead times. They may also loose some of the people that have had a lot of experience building these engines. The engines and the parts will remain available, but the costs and lead times will increase to the point where they may not be affordable.
The factory has been extremely flexible and provided extensive engineering and testing to develop the 400 Hp version, the electric start version, the vacuum pump adapters and the Sytronics alternator adapters.
The factory has just informed me that they must sell least five engines in the next two months. All the parts are ready for final assembly and test and can be configured as 360 hp or 400 hp with or without electric start.
In order to accommodate them I will offer 5 engines at my cost to Moose builders. I realize that many of you have kits and will not need an engine for some time. I hope some of you can take advantage of this situation and order your engines soon.
Please contact me directly if you can take advantage of this situation. It will provide you a new engine at a favorable price as well as help keep the engines in serial production.
