I just finished doing a ton of research for purchasing a new engine.
Bottom line - Lanacair had by FAR the best prices on a new engine.
Apparently, the engines they have for sale at such good prices were
destined to be installed on an airplane manufactured somewhere in
eastern Europe, like Yugoslavia (can't remember the airplane name).
Someone checked the engine designation for me and cross referenced to
the airframe maker.  We guessed it had something to do with all the
fighting/civil wars over there, that they are unable to produce the
planes....

I don't know this is true, just pieced together some information.

If you need an engine reasonably soon, you better order now.  It takes
awhile to get one, and they raise prices based on delivery date.  So
getting an engine in 1999 will probably mean a 1999 price, not the
current 1998 price.
