I have a friend who is finishing a Sonex with the Jabiru 3300. Machining is what I do for a living, and I was definitley impressed with the quality of the engine. Top notch workmanship. I haven't made my engine decision yet, but the Jab is in the running.

Thanks Phil,

They certainly look well made in the photos I've seen. I hope to make
it to OSH this year and see one in person. I'm not sure if they are
shipping the 8 cyl yet, but it looks like it would fit in an RV and
work well. I'm a long way from an engine decision myself, haven't
even ordered the tail & tools yet :).
