Hi all!

I am in a co ownership of a 1968 Arrow, and our engine is currently
operating on overtime (allowed extra time before complete overhaul)

I have been given the priviledge of findig out our options on a

replacement
engine.
Can someone provide a web page with links to different European shops that
would do this?


Air Power supply factory engines if you want to go down that road.
http://www.factoryengines.com/

If you can persuade your local maintenance shop to do the swap, that may be
the most cost effective route.

What would our options be? A new engine? Refurbished one? What would be

the
pro's and con's of those two, and the price difference.


Here's a typical set of numbers from the site above:

New $33,100
Remanufactured $21,900
Overhauled $19,600

The difference between a reman and a factory overhaul is mainly in terms of
formally zeroing the time rather than making it SMOH. In principle the
tolerances are tighter for the reuse of parts. In practice it might not
make much difference.
