Was an Enginair customer.  BAD CHOICE.  Then invested in EPS – we bought out Enginair and tried to pick up the pieces.  BAD CHOICE.  After that folded I partnered up with another EPS investor and we tried to build our own V8 app’s with our own expert.  BAD CHOICE.  I now have a Performance Engines TSIO 550 installed.  Likely will turn out to be another BAD CHOICE.

All that said, the fact you’re going without the turbochargers (yes?)  I hear the LS series V8’s may do well.  There is a guy in Eastern Canada who installs them in SeaBees successfully.  I don’t recall his name but he was doing an install in a Lancair IV recently and he purchased some of the remaining parts I had on hand.

Try Googling V8 Seabees and I’ll bet you’ll find him.

Good luck,

John Barrett

I am ready to hang an engine on my L-IV project (not-pressurized) and am agonizing over the choice of engine. I have a good grasp on the problems with the Enginair V8 conversions a few years ago but is there ANYONE out there who has successfully hung one of the GM LS V8 engines on a Lancair IV (or Legacy). Alternatively  I was hoping to find anyone who has unsuccessfully done so and is willing to talk about it.

Thanks
