Lycoming 320 and EAA Light Sport Aircraft ?

The use of the Lycoming 320 engine is at or above the top end of the
proposed EAA Light Sport Aircraft category (1,232 lbs max. GW). I assume
that the EAA SportPilot/Light Sport Aircraft will be successful, and that it
will cause a decrease in the production of slightly heavier aircraft.

The question is; Will the production of EAA Light Sport Aircraft decrease or
increase the production of Lycoming 320 engines?

The question relates to 'should I design a craft based on using the Lycoming
O-320-B3C

Thanks.
