The price seems to be comparable to the well-proven Rotax 503 and 582. But the price isn't the whole story.
The race-Kart engine is rated for use in a land-based go-kart and capable of producing max power for short durations and probably NOT going to get you to a TBO that is satisfactory for aircraft use.
As an example, the 64 horse Rotax 582 is rated at over 125 horsepower when used in a jet-ski or snowmobile.
