How are you sir,

   I have a question regarding what you think is a ball park price for
either a 13B or 20B aviation conversion. I've researched the subject on
a few forums and personal web pages, however, air plane (much like boat)
owners seem to cringe at the thought of ever revealing just how much their
projects cost. I've looked into the prices of a few key components (rebuilt
engine, PSRU) but can't come up with how much the other components cost. I
figure a rebuilt 13B long block costs about $1,500 ($2,500 for 20B) while a
PSRU can be had for about $3,500, making the main components alone worth at
least $5,000. The hard part (for me at least) is coming up with a conceivable
budget for all the other odds and ends such as custom radiator and the neccessary
lines needed to use it, ignitions, and injectors, custom intake and exhaust,
standalone, ecu, custom engine mounts and a bunch of items I can't think of
off hand. If  be willing to share your knowledge on the
subject, please help me come up with at least an idea of what the conversion
would cost. Thank you for any help or suggestions you may have regarding the subject.



Best thanks,

Vladimir

It all depends on what you want to use and where you get it.
If you are good a scrounging from junk yards you might be able to do it
for another $1000. My guess the average person spends another
$3000.
