Do any Velocity builders have any experience with the Northstar 4.6L used or considered for an aviation application. I am trying to determine the feasibility of using one in my 173 RG. I was looking into an aluminum block 4.3L but have found that the North 4.6L is an all aluminum engine available as a crate engine from GM. It produces 300+ HP stock. My biggest questions are availability of a PSRU (have emailed Nortwest aero, but have not received a reply yet) and total installed weight. I am still looking for the best balance between weight, power, installation time and cost. Any info / opinions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe
