As a non-pilot techy guy, I hardly feel qualified to reply, but at
least one source is Olenik Aviation http://www.buyitsellitfixit.com/
further, http://www.buyitsellitfixit.com/hks_700-e.htm

His interest is mostly in ultralights, but his numbers make this one
look good for someone who needs an engine in the 60HP range. I don't
know from what it is derived, but they advertise a TBO of 800 hours,
not unlike what some auto conversions seem to like.

At the least, further informstion should be available there.
