Auto conversion ideas

[Dana]

I would be very hesitant to sign off a condition inspection on a one off design that included totally foreign characteristics. How could I ever know if its in a condition for safe operation? How do I check for cracks/wear/etc that may be unique to this one airframe? Its not like an RV that's got a proven track record of a very conservative design.

One A&P I know will do condition inspections on Experimentals, but only if they have Continental or Lycoming engines. My plane at the time had a Mosler half VW engine, so he wasn't interested.
