Greetings from Mojave, California! I'm a first-time poster on this forum.
I'm looking in to various options for a turbocharged Lycoming 540. One that's popped up on barnstormers.com is a TIO-541. There are several for sale, relatively cheap, including everything firewall forward. I know it's an oddball engine. It's built upside down compared to all other Lycomings, and the accessories are in odd places. Given that, what else can anyone tell me about them? How is the parts support, and overhaul support?
