Lessee here ...

The big stuff:

Professionally Built Engine (e.g. Bruce T)    $ 6500
Re-drive                                      $ 2965
Engine mount                                  $ 1100
EC2                                           $  895
Fuel pumps (2)                                $  262

Can some help me fill in the gaps and stuff I missed?
So far, it about 1/2 the cost of a Lycosaurus.

In just as unrelated news, I wrote the final check for my Lyclone engine for the RV-8.  It's being test run this week, and will ship next week. The total... ONLY $21,600 :-)


Rusty, John Dyke keeps telling us builders that a rotary installation will cost more than a Lycoming.  You're the only person I know that has written checks for both in such a short time, and recently.  So all told, how would you compare the cost?  How about if you had to figure in your time at shop rates?
