I'm still looking at buying a rotary-powered Cozy (or buying a regular Cozy and putting a rotary in it).

The builder of the plane I'm looking at has already agreed to do conditional inspections on it, but at some point that arrangement may no longer be possible and at that point the plane turns into a pumpkin unless an agreeable A&P/IA can be found to do the inspection.

I've talked to my local Cozy expert (Burrall Sanders) and while he's happy to do conditional inspections in general, he's not willing to do one on an automotive engine conversion.  Someday I might talk him into it, but not yet.

Does anyone have any advice?  I'm not particularly concerned about where, I'd be willing to go wherever is necessary.
