        I have seen the fadec system at sun&fun and it is to big to put on
our firewall , are the folks at the new York plant thinking  about making it
smaller?
      I'm thinking when I get around to buying my engine I would like to
have it a  TSIOLF -550 D     This would be a 550 as it is today with the
liquid cooled cylinders and fadec installed  and would also be duel exhaust
and cross flow injection. I see that TCM should put out only one 550 and
this should be the best combination as I see it . The fadic system would
allow the alternator backup to be in the mag mounts and a large 110 amp
alternator on the front in 24 volt only . This would allow for de-ice as
well as power to run the plane in light icing conditions  . I still have not
heard about the difference between the size of the Liquid and the air cooled
engine . Are their any cylinder differences to consider in the cowl ? The
other question is what size is the radiator . Is  the profile of the liquid
and the air cooled  the same?or how close are they to each other in size ?
