Some links to get you informed:

http://www.aeronexx.com (SMA/Renault ground up aero engine)

http://www.centurion-engines.com (Thielert converted Mercedes Engine)

The SMA is around 300 horse. Thielert 120 horse though they going a lot larger for the next one I believe Thielert tried red diesel - it ran but not efficiently.

Just seen an add on AFORS asking for a C172 with dead engine, so they can fit the Centurion. That's one flying club I would want to belong too
