diesel power

Hi all, I am new to this forum and would like to thank you all for the really interesting and good quality content. Happy New Year to all of you and your family. Keep safe.
My question is about the DeltaHawk's 180/200HP 2 strokes diesel engines.
Does anyone know if they are nearing certification for vertical mounting and what is your opinion as one of them as a replacement of Lycoms on light pistons ships? (mainly in self built/kits units such as Safaris/Cabris etc...)... I cannot get fresh news on the net... but going diesel seems really interesting. Any other suppliers? Cheers. Al
