Only other engine option I can think of other than the turbo-prop test mule would be Riley's 520 Super Sky Rocket. Probably cheaper to find one than convert one though.

They have quite a good climb rate, both dual and single engine, I just did not like the weight penalty, or the exclusiveness of parts. People I know that had them loved them. The climb rate is around 750 single and 2500 fpm both, it can go....but with fuel burn to match.

I just thought I'd post that my Skymaster is through the annual and it went reasonably well. Engines seem to be all good with clean filters, good compression's, and scoping all cylinders yielded all "pretty" pictures of valves. Soooo, carry on I shall. Two factory engines installed in 1988 that now have about 1570 SFRM. Hoping for another good year.
