Default Looking for a sub-100hp engine with long TBO time.

Why not just go with a Jabiru 2200?

A TBO of 2000 hours currently applies, with a top end TBO of 1000 hours. A

Air cooled + no redrive = simple.

Reasonably priced.

This is for a hypothetical ultralight design, so just looking for
suggestions here of where to look at... hopefully a 4-stroke, purchase
price doesn't matter much, certification status doesn't matter either.
Long time before overhaul matters A LOT... so, the longer the better.
Is there anything out there in the 80-hp range? How about a motorcycle
engine conversion - how long can those go before needing to be
overhauled?

Thanks!
