Thats is friggin awesome!

 

I should talk my stepdad into doing that with our 1948 Cesna 172 taildragger! He always talks about wanting more power but doesnt want to spend the big bucks on a bigger engine. The engine in there now only has like 160HP. The LS1 parts sure would be cheaper than airplane engine parts! You thought mark up on car parts was bad you should see in for airplanes!

I think the engine still need to be FAA certified. Will drive up the cost. Also that 160 HP Cesna engine probably weights as much as the rotating assembly on the LS1.
