The engines are slightly lighter than the aircooled versions and fit right in the stock mounts. Customers can purchase the parts to convert the Lycoming themselves or purchase the complete engine. Options include Electronic Fuel Injection and Ignition, water cooled turbochargers, and ceramic engine components. Power is available through 375 hp. Three of the new water cooled opposed engines have been built with another in process for delivery after its display at Oshkosh. One of the engines will be in Dick Rutan's aircraft that we intend to have on display in our booth 436 at Oshkosh. We will also have a Piper and a Beirkut with the water cooled engines on display along with a stand alone display 540 (as for the Legacy) fitted with EFI and turbos. We will be giving demonstration rides in the Piper at least. All three of the water cooled aircraft will be doing fly bys. These new engines utilize completely new water cooled barrel and head assemblies and a water pump assembly that is driven from the engine accessory casing. For parties interested in looking at the engines and aircraft - There will be a minimum of 9 ZEHRBACH/LPE powered aircraft on hand at Oshkosh with 15 expected (according to customers) for inspection utilizing various combinations of the water cooling, electronic fuel injection and ignition, Lancair LIV Continental engine mods, and ceramics. Three customer aircraft are scheduled to be in the Kitty Hawk to Oshkosh race. There will be other aircraft with our engines on display in several airframe manufacturers booths scattered around Oshkosh. A ZEHRBACH modified Continental will be on display at ULMAN AIRCRAFT, a ZEHRBACH modified 360 Lycoming will be on display at TEAM TANGO, and a water cooled 540 Lycoming will be on display at the BEIRKUT booth.
