There is a guy selling a military spec 914 fuel injected engine on
Barnstormers. I think it is off a predator drone.

One modification I can see is the turbo is top-mounted.

Does anyone have any info on what if anything is modified as a military
spec? Does anyone know how they implemented fuel injection on these
engines?

The engine has 1000 hours on it so it is about to 1200 TBO. What is a
run-out 914 worth.

You might check the real hours. I have a friend and he said they run those through one TBO. It is possible it has a lot more hours on it so double check and many of these military engine weren't supposed to make the civilian market, but some have. It may be a tired engine. I wouldn't buy it unless it has it's paperwork in order since new. These engines are buyer be ware, but some have worked out.
