Default Went Worth aircraft

Couldn't find anything with search from this forum. They claim to be big engine supplier for homebuilts so somebody should know something? I just don't have faith in diesels yet so need to look alternative solutions i.e. traditional engines just in case...

Any comments highly appreciated.

They are a huge supplier of salvaged parts. My friend Terry (he's on here...) just had an engine shipped to him in pieces from Wentworth, and had it overhualed during assembly by one of our local reputable builders. I've seen the engine, and it is very nice!

I've purchased parts from them in the past for my Cherokees, and service was very good.

Thumbs up from me!

Might have been because you needed to search "wentworth". The second thread listed in the search is from a recent discussion:

Ooh... dummy me. Why did I tried to search those separately. Oh, well... thanks Chad and Sam!
