I've been reading through a lot of alternative engine threads and it would appear that there are auto based engines that check most of the boxes for aircraft. The LS3 in particular seems to have legs. The weak link seems to be reliable PSRUs.
Why hasn't anyone been able to crack the code on reliably transferring 300hp to the prop without blowing up the PSRU gears or prop?
Seems there's a fair sized market with the RV-10s, scaled mustangs, and a number of certified craft that might benefit from a 280-325hp proven auto conversion that was made up of a package of custom and off the shelf parts, run on mo-gas etc?
