  Is there one dealer with better deals than the next?  Any recommendations?
 I think I am going to go with an MT and would like some input.  I know from
past discussions on the list that the 2 blade is more efficient in cruise, but
the 3 blade sure does look cool IMHO :p.  I have an O-320 E3D, does anyone
know if I can use the hydraulic model or will I have to get an electric.  I'm
sure these questions are better suited to be placed directly with MT, but I
know alot of you guys run those and any input would be appreciated.  Thanks
again.

[Hopefully Don Gordon will jump in here.. he has an MT 3-blade on his 320 and you're right, it certainly does look great.  I'm sure he could provide you with some performance data with which to form a decision.  Others with 2-blade setups could provide some counterpoint.  Good luck with whatever you choose.  <Marv>        ]
