[timpercarpio]

We have a '78J that needs an engine overhaul. Has anyone ever heard of or used this company?

Have you talked to Triad Aviation, Burlington, NC.  http://www.hhtriad.com/ta.asp  .  Talk to shop manager Othman Rashed 336-227-1467.  They have a very good reputation locally and Othman has always been very helpful to me during 21 years of Mooney ownership.  They are a lot closer to you than TX.

Wow - those prices are so low, makes you wonder if they do anything more than apply a feather duster to the engine and call it overhauled.  How can they be less than half the price of the top shops?  Makes me wonder.

Tim sent you a PM

firefly201,

How do I access your PM?

Tim have you talked to Aero Engines of Winchester? He arranged the pickup and delivery of my engine when it needed some repairs. I was really impressed with the speed at which we got the engine back and also that he took the time to clean everything up and paint it. It came back looking like a new engine. They are located in Winchester, VA

I'll give them a call tomorrow.

Call Columbia Aircraft Services in Bloomsburg, PA  if you are doing all remove and install  . If you need it removed and installed professionally Webers is the best and right in your backyard.  (Webers can do the whole job if you like.) They are both very reasonable.

I've heard good things about Columbia and I'm familiar with and have high regard for Weber.

Thanks for the info.
