Allison / RR like in the Bonanza was my thinking. I see several advantages:
1) Less weight
2) More reliability
3) No more leaded AVGAS
4) Easier Engine-Management
5) More performance
Besides that turboprop-dream an STC for the Continental CD-300 should be done anyways.
How about a Jetfuel- / Diesel engine? Flying outside the US AVGAS is getting rarer by the month. I would buy a PT6 upgrade into my Acclaim in a heartbeat !
