Scott,
Thanks for your in put, it makes me feel a little
better. I've had so many people say it will be under powered and the resale is
not as good, but I'm not building it to sell either. My Glasair has a IO-360B1E
and weights 1325# and does 170kts, so I couldn't believe that the IO-550 would
not be enough for the Lancair IV. Getting 210 knots will be plenty for
me. Scott where are you located?
Thanks,
Michael

Michael,
I finished a LIV non-presurized last summer with
a IO-550.
I totally love it. It climbs beautifully,
cruises at 210kts, and flys like a dream.
Empty weight of 1995lbs, gross 0f
3500.
Still lots of power even at gross.
Just my opinion.
