Vans has a nice discount on three (was four, but I just bought one)
XIO-540-D4A5 engines just posted on the website.
On your marks... get set... go!

The current word is that Vans has sold out the four engines and three more. Lycoming has allowed Vans to keep taking orders at that price... I have no idea how much longer it will last.

I bought one this morning. Van's staff advised that Lycoming was making more available.
I emailed my forms to Van's, called in a credit card deposit and got the three blade MT prop as part of the package.
Wonderful timing as I arrived at Sun and Fun today fully intending to buy a Mattituck at $39,200 less $600 show special.
Van's price included shipping and took another $1000 off for the prop bundle.
So today was a great day under the theory that I didn't spend as much as Iwas thinking I'd have to.
Now,..... on to avionics with all the saved money.

so what is the difference between the YIO540 on sale and the normal XIO540
on the Van's site? Anyone know?
Speaking of MT 3 blade, anyone at SnF have a chance to go over to Hartzell
and ask about the two blade carbon blade yet?.. figure with Van's there it
may be a great way to get the two companies talking about offering the blade
to RV builders.
Thx
Pascal
BTW- Tom- great deal you did out there I would have done the same thing if
this was next year (aka Mattituck and instead saved 5K on an engine and
prop)

Van's advises that the YIO-540-D4A5 is identical to the XIO-540-D4A5 engine. Both are the experimental versions. Lycoming is getting more agressive with their marketing and wanted a code letter for themselves.
