Air Power supply factory engines if you want to go down that road.

I get two different prices for the engine for my Bulldog. If I enter it
as an IO-360-A1B6, I get
New $32,618, Remanufactured $21,331, Overhauled $18,692

As an AEIO-360-A1B6, I get
New $35,716, Remanufactured $23,407, Overhauled $20,759

Not sure what else you get in the "AE" bit. The RAF converted the
engine into an AE by adding a Christen inverted oil system I believe.

The engine (outside this add-on) I would guess is the same as it was
before. Why the price difference? Do they overhaul/supply a new
inverted oil system?

The AE is for AErobatic, hence the Christen inverted oil system

That's a bit of a laugh though, isn't it?
8 seconds was the book figure, but you'd be bloody lucky to last that long!

That's because there's so much dihedral on the wings
all the fuel runs downhill to the upper tanks when you're
inverted, so you only have what's in the fuel lines!
