I have no idea? These guys http://www.forcedaeromotive.com/ are working one of my customers that wants this supercharger on R409. I will definitely post our progress.

Welcome to VAF!
Tim, welcome aboard the good ship VAF.
Good to have you here.
It looks like Kevin has not logged on since 3-10, so I suspect you will not be hearing from him on this issue unless you make direct contact outside VAF.

From his recent FB status it looks good for Relentless anyways. I would believe one of their ACE 540 is still an option that would work.

Ernst, I was up there Saturday morning and saw your beautiful -10. WOW! The fit and finish is just superb! I really like your gust locks too. So simple....

Kevin has not been here at VAF for a couple years now-------as I recall, he is now running Lancair's turboprop business. I have no idea if he is still part of the ACE engine stuff.

It's actually Evolution Aircraft now - he has sold the whole Lancair line to a father/son team in Uvalde, TX. Kevin kept only the EVO. The Lancair team did a nice briefing on their plans this morning at SnF.
