Any thoughts on these guys? They offer a complete LS based 430HP package that includes the fuel pumps, wiring, 2 ECU's, engine monitor and ground adjustable prop for $24,500. $22,500 sans prop. They are currently going through the STC process to get a 180HP version into a 172.

Here is what you get:

GM Crate Engine w/ ignition, injection and most sensors, already checked on test stand.

2:1 helical gear box with fluid and Lycoming hub.

Soft rubber drive coupling and fasteners.

Flexplate starter ring.

Composite prop blades closest to your application.

Ground adjustable 2-blade propeller hub (3 and 4 blade are options).

Hi-torque GM starter.

2.5” exhaust swivels, flanges, and gaskets.

45 amp alternator, pulley, bracket, and belt. 75, 120, 140 and 160 amp alternators are also available along with a dual setup.

Front engine stand-off mounts and isolated shock mounts (like lord) for the gear box and stand-offs.

2ea 75 psi continuous flow fuel pumps, regulators, regulator AN fittings, check valves, pressure gauge, and in-line filter (GM submersible pump, regulator, and fuel level sender can be substituted for one or both).

6.5” screen, 4 push button, LCD daylite monitor with basic engine parameter display and menu for operating options that will have backup manual throttle.
8.5” screen, other operating options, and a custom display or your options are available.
