    David -

    Thanks for the welcome to the group.
    I have purchased a set of plans and will construct a plans-built slow build.
    Next week I will be at Sun-n-Fun (my first time!) and will attend the Zenith forums.

    It's worth all the effort! The finish work is discouraging. It's kind of like building a house. You frame it and it looks like a house! Then the finish work takes forever! Keep up the good work, Jim

    David,

    I will be happy to share all info I have on the IO-233.  I know it will be heavier, but with the eiditon 2 airframe, I am OK with that.  I just received my IO-233 last month. I have it mounted and the fuel pump (specified by Lycoming) installed.  You will need a fuel return which i plumed to the R wing as the L wing fuselage interface area is full of wires and pitot stuff.  I will post some pictures.  I have a lot of hours behind Lycoming and simply felt more confident in the engine.  BUT these things end up being personal choices.  Best of luck.   Tom
