I'm sorry you got stuck with a $20k repair because of crappy work. How long ago was the repair? It sounds like a lot of people didn't catch it. I passed on a Skymaster a few years ago that had a version of the IO-360 engine installed that was not on the TC, and there had been 17 annuals from 4 different IAs since that installation.

BTW, what is a C172 cowl flap motor? I thought the only 172s with any cowl flaps were actually the last of the 1963 C175 Skylarks renamed as P172Ds. IIRC, they had manual cowl flaps because of the larger 175hp engine.
