Do what thou wilt.

Apparently the current US distributors are not the problem, but rather
a previous one. I remember very well a post on Usenet about a guy who
bought an engine overseas, before a US dealer existed. When one was
appointed, he refused to sell the guy any parts to punish him for
buying it "around him", even though he wasn't the dealer then, and the
works refused to ship him parts because there was a dealer in the US!
However I am unable to find that post.

Still, the Jabiru is an expensive noncertificated engine, with only
one parts line, and it turns a small prop fast. In that it combines the
lesserly-desirable aspects of aircraft engines and non-aircraft engines.
