Anyone have any ball park price reference points to switch from Gen. to Alt. on a twin.

Plane Power kit = $1,500 and 8-10 hours if done during the annual.

Concur with Kristen's numbers. That's exactly where we ended up on our switch. Key was doing it during a 100 hr/annual while everything was already opened up to begin with.
