I am in the process of looking for an engine for my 601XL.  Does anybody have a source of information on the different Lycoming, Continental and other aircraft engine models and specs?  I have been looking at Lycoming and Continental engines on Barnstormers and there seems to be a lot of different models of each for sale.  Neither the Lycoming or Continental web sites seem to have much information on their engines.

I assume you've looked at the specs on the Zenith website <http>



On the certified side the Cont 0-200 and Lyc 235 are the most common.  



There is a link to a number of other engine choices at <www>

Try these: This one lists differences of many engine types. http://home.adelphia.net/~aeroengine/index.html

 

 This one lists weights and horsepower. http://www.wanttaja.com/avlinks/engines.htm#Engines2

 

 Maybe start at Ron Wattaja's home page. http://www.wattaja.com

I have looked at the information on the Zenith website, but then when I started looking for actual engines to purchase I started coming across a bunch of different models of each of these.  The Lycoming 0-235 engines generally have some more model numbers after the 0-235 that seem to indicate different horsepowers and stuff like that.  And I don't know which of these would be suitable for my needs.

How about the type certificate data sheets on file with the FAA?  Go to http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgMakeModel.nsf/MainFrame?OpenFrameSet

Search by TCDS number



For Lycoming 0-235   search E-223



For Continental 0-200 search  E-252



The TCDS are in pdf format so you'll need Adobe Reader available free from www.adobe.com



I hope this helps!
