  Bill,
  
  I am looking at building a Legacy right now as well!  The price on the
  IO-550 just went up 7% or 3500$ in January, so it's $49k now.  I was
  looking at putting a Superiou XP-360 in for less than 24k.  So I'm
  interested in all these issues as well.  Weight and balance would be
  among them.  But it seems like a hybrid Legacy RG with the small engine
  would have a lot of appeal.

  Anyway...  I originally was thinking of the FG with the new THIO-360
  from superior...  Lancair says this configuration will give performance
  numbers of 176 / 188 / 202 kts at 8500 / 12500 / 17500 feet respectively
  at 28" and 2500 RPM...  Not bad, but I was wondering what this engine /
  prop combo would do on the RG?  Anyone flying this combo?  ..have any
  real world performance numbers?
