Penn Yan used to do these conversions also. Might do a search.

I checked in with Air Plains today . . . they are offering to install a 180 HP
Lycoming O-360 A4 for $35K and I have to give them my Cont O-300. It's a
complete firewall forward change . . . takes a week in their shop. They will
also ship everything needed to do the upgrade to my mechanic for $30,000 (and I
have to send them the old engine and prop, etc).

Cost/benefit seems way out of line at first look . . . still exploring the
Franklin 220 . . . no response from them yet.
