Several guys I've seen pull use them. Wayne Longnecker uses a Merlin V12 with a metric ton of cubic inches. There are a BUNCH of Allison V12's out there.

Mega bucks to build, mega bucks to run. Guy I talked to at the Iowa State Fair thought it'd take a grand or so to buy an Allison. No idea how much it takes to switch to alcohol and add 2 turbo's. If you want a 6 banger aircraft engine, I've got a Lycoming I'd sell cheap. Think it's stuck though.
