Anyone ever consider Barrett Performance Engines in Tulsa OK.?
I got my TSIO-550-E for my IV-P there.
Engine was delivered on time, price no probolem, engine runs
great, great support and service.

I have a LIV with a Performance Engine and I am very happy with the
service I have received. Sure Ron was late with his delivery, but not as
late as the other SoCal performance engine shop was when I bought a
Lyc for my other homebuilt. The TSIO-550 was delivered in the
condition contracted for and at the agreed to price. The engine has been
great except for leaky turbos--oil leaking out after engine shutdown. I
traced the problem to a faulty check valve--a new TCM check valve supplied by
Lancair as part of their hose kit. Ron helped with the diagnosis over
the phone, as did Mark Mahnke by the way. I ran my engine to full power
last Friday in anticipation of first flight soon and Ron came to me at Chino
at no expense to do the tuning. So mark me down as a very happy
customer, and no I do not race at Reno--but I did stay at a Holiday Inn
Express last night.
