Price of a new Jabiru 3300 motor?

I tried calling Shadow Lite but it looks like they are not open on Saturdays.

Can anyone advise what the current price of a new Jabiru 3300 motor is?

Re: Springs Airfield Storm Damage

Heartbreaking!

There are about 5 hangars that have collapsed and many many broken aircraft. Many of them that probably will be beyond repairable.
