Well we think it will be the same engine. 500 EFI. however I removed the supercharger. Although I liked going 87mph, I would prefer having longevity and dependability on the engine year to year.... I know some about engines but not enough to do rebuilds on my own. So once this one is all done I should be good for 500 hrs before anything major needs to be done. I will only top off around 72 -74 depending on the conditions and what prop. But the nice part is I could go WOT and not do any damage to the engine what so ever....

Thanks I can't wait either. If it is not a catisrophic failure I will have a new paint job as well.
