Hey guys, I had an engine failure the other day and I am looking for the best choice in engine shops. I am looking at Don George and Zephyr Engines. I plan on making a decision today so if u care to weigh in, please do so ASAP. I chose these two shops because I am in Leesburg Fl. on vacation, and both shops do a free pickup.

Hi Jim, I am sorry to here about your engine failure. I hope that you and your wife are OK! I have herd good things about Don George engines. When I was up in Leesburg, FL afew weeks ago taking some lessons with Steve Wolf, he was having his IO540 being rebuilt by I believe Zephyr engines. His number is 352-728-5667. I also have herd good things about:
Mattituck aircraft engines
800-624-6680
Barrett Performance engines
918-835-1089
Aero Sport Power
250-376-2955
Ly-con aircraft engines
559-651-1070
These overhaul shops are probably out of the way. Don George and Zephyr are the only two in FL that I have herd of. If I can be of any help please let me know.
Leif

Jim,
I have done three prebuy inspections on Don George engines and all three had some issue post overhaul. Zephyr engines is a better call but the top 2 in my mind are LyCon and Aerosport power. They do incredible work and produce a superior product for your incestment. I know they are farther away, but you asked

Thanks Smokey,
I sent it to Zephyr today and agree the two places u mentioned were were top choices but nixed due to shipping cost added to an already outrageous price I expect to pay..
