Default Wow! New engine is awsome

Just got my 320 back yesterday. We had a new engine hung on the left side. It is a Millenium engine. SWEEEEEET! I put one on the right 2 years ago. They are great engines. Kind of pricey at $36,000 but wow! I flew it yesterday with 80 gallons of fuel and no camera and I can't believe the climb. Was at 1500 agl by the end of the runway. I almost always take off at gross with the camera and 180 gallons of fuel. It is a rocket ship light. Loaded it all up and flew over to Washington today at 10,500. It is one of the smoothest running engines we have put on yet. Millenium has a 5 year warrenty. They are well worth it. 5 years ago when I replaced this one last time, the case cracked a few months later and we had to eat the cost. Something like that happens to this one and it is taken care of, plus the fact that I have never had a millenium crack a cyllender and the old rebuilds would eat a one about every 2 to 3 months. What a pain.

If you need an engine, check out these engines at superior air parts. They rock and roll!
