I ended  up going with the Superior Air Parts XP-400 SRE (Superior Racing 
Engine)  which is their XP-400 with a different cam and high compression 
cylinders  which will develop 250hp (vs the 220hp the standard XP-400  
generates).

It should be a good combination MT Prop  (MTV-12)



Is the XP-400 a four cylinder?  All the problems I have had with my mt  (took 
off and junked) were due to (according to mt) my installation of high  
compression pistons (10-1), and the use of electronic ignition (Klaus) in a four  
cylinder IO-360C.  They said that they only approve the mt on "certified"  360's 
 I even purchased the "new and improved" blades which did nothing for  
keeping the bearings, and seals together after 40hrs of  operation.  I am now flying 
with my Performance fixed pitch, and have  a Catto on order, and fly with 
pease of mind that I will get home and not be  grounded somewhere.  
 
If mt tells you it will work on a high compression 4 banger, ask them about  
the guy in California who they told it won't.
