Fresh TSIO-360-CB

[hharney]

Continental is running specials on new and rebuilt direct from the factory. Discounts of $1500 on new, $750 on rebuilt.

These are the only true ZERO time engines direct from Continental.

One year warranty.

Just an option for those considering.

There is lots of posts about how long these engines will go before OH or replacement. The same engine is in a Piper Seneca and has a 2000 hour TBO. Cessna would never go back and up the anny on TBO for the Skymaster because it didn't interest them. Most of the normal aspirated engines go for a minimum of 2000 hours and some way beyond that. I know of some P model turbo engines that have gone beyond 2000 also.

FWIW, I just did my annual last week and my front engine is at 1800 SMOH and the compressions were all high 70's. I'll keep running it for now. When I replaced the rear it had over 2300 SNEW and it was running fine when I sent it in for core.

I looked at your N5ZX at Owen's one year ago when I was picking up my wingtips. Nice airplane then and sounds really nice now.

Hope to see you at Sun 'N Fun....................
