Monty Barrett did the original overhaul on the
IO540K Lycoming I converted to a TIO540 for my IV-P. I used to own a
race prep shop and have built dozens of endurance racing Porsche and
Mazda engines. I also had a dynamometer in the shop. Before picking BPA
to do the overhaul I visited his shop and talked to Monty at length.
Not only does he know how to build engines, he knows engine theory and
is well respected by those who design engines. I have over 1,000 hours
on my engine and only the magnetos, plugs, filters and oil have been
changed. Compression is still in the mid 70's
You may be able to find someone who can do as good a job as BPE but I
seriously doubt you can find someone who can do a better job.

Brent Regan
