UPDATE: Ordered the T-Bolt April 2019 and got word today it should be shipping this week! Roughly 9 month lead time.....pics to follow when it arrives.
As far as the propeller I was toying with an idea of selling, $$$ says I keep the one I have. But for my next airplane............
Build on.

What color did you go with for the engine? And the copper/brass covers?
Haven't ordered mine yet, but I have it on good authority from my children that red is the fastest color. |

Mark, why are you considering selling your prop? Which one are you installing? I'm expecting my prop to arrive next week but the power plant not until mid-year, probably right after AirVentures.

Color - deep blue case with green jugs. I know sounds odd but matches the airplane paint scheme
Prop - I was considering it as I wanted a 3 blade. My reasoning was that spending the extra on a t bolt would be wasted somewhat by putting on a 2 blade. I just can?t put the extra cash on a 3 blade at this time.....and I talked to my local prop guy and he thinks with the discount I wouldn?t lose that much selling it later with 300 hours on it

Lycoming T bolt lead times
All,
I ordered my Thunderbolt engine in November. Jeff tells me that I should expect a late September delivery, but hope fully sooner. Nine- ten months seems to be the norm, so plan accordingly.

a long time
Ordered mine from Jeff in person at Sun & Fun 2019 and it came last week 1/24/2020. But still excited as can be! It's red. The build took longer so it worked out well.

FYI I ordered my stock Lyc 390 and prop on 10/31/19 and received my engine on Feb 13. 3 1/2 months is not too bad
