Hello, all.
I’m currently shopping for an economical cruiser to commute ~300 miles. I’d been considering the 231/252, but for that short of a distance, the difference in speed versus a 201 would only amount to a few minutes each way. I know the TBO on the IO-360 in the 201 is 2000 hours. Do they tend to make it to TBO? I’ve found a well-outfitted 201 I like, but the engine is around 1750 hours. Compressions are 75,75,78,76. Does overhaul still run around $30k?
Thanks, Brad
