Sam Hale, may we have some Kenmore pricing please?

Have you modified your aircraft? STC? STOL Kit? Major rebuild from just a data plate?

Sam Hale, may we have some Kenmore pricing please?

Sam,
Since you are right there i figured you might be the best to ask.

Price for the Cessna 180 increase gross kit.

Price for the O-520 conversion.

Thank you and tell Rob hello if you can, we were NWSea together in a past life.

If you know Rob then you prolly know your chances of getting a deal :)

Forget that Kenmore engine and get a pponk!

Lol, yeah right?

I actually did just Pponk this past summer but have another buddy looking at upgrading so I would just like a quote for him to compare.
I am, however, looking to do the increase gross kit at some point and have never heard a quote on price ever.
Thank you.

Don't bother with engine comparison, just do the pponk :)

Kenmore gross weight is $300, $100 for the STC and $200 for the little reinforcement strap. As discussed in another thread one still needs to source the larger vertical fin, who knows how much that costs.

As far as an installed kit thru our shop it's always time and materials here, no flat rates. If pressed you might be able to get a quote on time required by the DOM :)

Current ballpark seems to be around $6K

Dealing with Rob R, buyer beware, get it in writing up front!

I just priced a 185 vertical fin and rudder combination, with an exchange of my perfectly fine standard 180J fin and rudder and it came out to about $7600 exchange. Outright would be just south of $10K. Needless to say I passed.
