He I have have been talking about buying a core
engine and overhauling it under the watchful eye of a local
A&P to gain some experience, and then installing it on my
Aztec, Then overhaul the removed engine, swap once
again, and overhaul the remaining engine. I get two overhauled
engines without having the airplane grounded during the process
and a third for a spare or for sale.

Anybody here have a run-out IO-540C4B5 for sale?

I've had that same idea, IF, I could be made comfortable with the core
engine. Maybe if you do yours, I'll snag your old engine...we could have a
C4B5 rotational pool. A couple months ago, there were two C4B5's on Ebay
for sale. There were also a few that sold at Earle Aircrafts Dispersal
Auction. We lost a good Aztec parts source with that one.
