&lt;Rhonda@BPAENGINES.com&gt;:<br><br> A 520 to 550 conversion at overhaul is certainly possible.  But, the<br> only 520
that has the cross-flow injection is the TSIO-520-BE.  A<br> conversion requires phase three permold, heavy cases and
entails<br> installation of a new crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons and a sump<br> change for the Legacy
installation.  Core prices have gotten fairly high<br> due to lack of availability, and sometimes the quality is
lacking.  Once<br> the conversion is completed, you are going to spend the same amount of<br> money as you would in
purchasing a factory reman engine with Lancair and<br> sending it to us for the Reno Edition mods.  The conversion is
most cost<br> effective with a non-VAR crankshaft, otherwise you can add an additional<br> $4500 for a core back to
